Value Collection KP60066 Open End Blind Rivet Size 42 250 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP60066 is an open end blind rivet with a dome head, designed for fastening applications where access is limited to one side of the workpiece. The rivet features a steel body and a phosphate-finished steel mandrel, providing solid mechanical performance in general fabrication, light structural assembly, and sheet metal work. The body diameter is 0.125 inches with a grip range of 0.063 to 0.125 inches, making it well suited for joining thin to moderately thick material stacks. Tensile strength is rated at 310 pounds and shear strength at 260 pounds. This SKU ships in a package of 250 rivets, appropriate for production or service shop use.

These rivets are used across a wide range of trade and light industrial applications including HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical panel fabrication, plumbing fixture mounting, and general sheet metal work. The open end design allows the mandrel to pull through and set the rivet with standard blind rivet tools. The dome head profile sits flush against the surface and is appropriate for non-countersunk applications. Size code 42 corresponds to a 0.125-inch body diameter and is a commonly stocked size for production fastening work.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a blind rivet tool sized for 0.125-inch body diameter rivets. Drill or punch the hole to the correct diameter before setting the rivet. Confirm material stack falls within the 0.063 to 0.125 inch grip range to ensure proper mandrel break and head seating. Always wear appropriate eye protection during rivet setting, as mandrel stems eject during the process.
