Value Collection KP38016 Blind Rivet Large Flange 50 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP38016 is a large flange head blind rivet with a steel body and steel mandrel, sold in a pack of 50. Blind rivets are used to join materials from one side only, making them the standard fastener choice when access to the back of a joint is limited or impossible. This rivet features a 1/2 inch head diameter and a grip range of 1/16 inch to 5/32 inch, allowing it to fasten a range of material stack thicknesses within that span. The yellow color aids identification on the job. Installation is performed with a standard hand or pneumatic rivet tool by maintenance technicians, fabricators, sheet metal workers, and general contractors.

This rivet is suited for light- to medium-duty fastening applications in sheet metal fabrication, HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosures, equipment panels, and general maintenance work. The large flange head distributes clamping load over a wider surface area, which reduces pull-through risk in softer or thinner base materials. The all-steel construction makes it appropriate for indoor and sheltered applications where corrosion resistance is not the primary requirement. Each pack contains 50 rivets.

Key Features

• Large flange head provides a wider load-bearing surface to resist pull-through
• Steel body and steel mandrel for consistent setting strength
• 1/2 inch head diameter for broad clamping footprint
• Grip range of 1/16 inch to 5/32 inch accommodates varied material stack thicknesses
• Yellow color for quick visual identification and sorting
• Pack of 50 rivets for practical job-site quantity

Compatibility

Designed as a standard blind rivet for use with hand-operated or pneumatic rivet tools that accept the matching mandrel size. Verify tool chuck compatibility with the mandrel diameter before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a rivet tool matched to the mandrel diameter. Drill a clean hole sized to the rivet body diameter through all materials being joined before setting. Insert the rivet fully into the hole and apply the tool until the mandrel stem breaks, indicating full set. Confirm the flange seats flush against the workpiece surface for proper clamp load.
