Value Collection KP3081 Open End Blind Rivet Dome Head 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP3081 is an open end blind rivet with a dome head, sold in a 100-piece pack. The rivet body and mandrel are both aluminum, making it well suited for lightweight assemblies where corrosion resistance matters. The dome head measures 3/8 inches in diameter, and the length under the head is 9/16 inches. Grip range spans 1/4 inch minimum to 3/8 inch maximum, covering a practical range of material stack-ups. Electricians, HVAC sheet metal installers, plumbers, and general contractors reach for blind rivets when only one side of the workpiece is accessible during assembly or repair.

This rivet is used in a wide range of trade and light industrial applications including ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, equipment panels, brackets, and sheet metal joining. The aluminum body keeps total fastener weight low and resists oxidation in damp or outdoor environments. At a grip range of 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch, the KP3081 handles standard sheet-to-sheet joints in residential and light commercial work. The 100-piece pack quantity suits both job-site use and shop stock replenishment.

Installation Notes

Blind rivets are installed by hand or pneumatic rivet tools by licensed sheet metal workers, electricians, or general contractors. Drill the pilot hole to match the rivet body diameter and deburr before insertion. Pull the mandrel until it snaps at the break point — inspect the set head on the blind side where accessible. No power disconnect is required unless the work surface is part of an energized enclosure, in which case de-energize and lock out per NFPA 70E before drilling.
