Value Collection KP7916 Open End Blind Rivet Size 810 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP7916 is a Size 810 open end blind rivet with a dome head, stainless steel body, and stainless steel mandrel. Blind rivets are permanent fasteners installed from one side of a workpiece using a rivet gun, making them the standard choice when only one side of the joint is accessible. This rivet features a 1/4 inch body diameter, a 1/2 inch dome head diameter, and a grip range of 0.501 to 0.625 inches. With a tensile strength of 2,100 pounds and shear strength of 1,700 pounds, it delivers reliable holding power in demanding structural and general-assembly applications. Licensed tradespeople, fabricators, and maintenance technicians across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general construction regularly use this fastener type.

This rivet is suited for light structural assembly, ductwork, sheet metal fabrication, electrical enclosures, and equipment panels where corrosion resistance is a priority. The all-stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for outdoor installations, coastal environments, wet mechanical rooms, or any application where a carbon steel fastener would corrode prematurely. The bright finish is consistent with standard IFI 114 Grade 51 fastener requirements. This package contains 100 rivets, sized for jobsite use or shop stock. Minimum hole diameter is 0.257 inches; maximum hole diameter is 0.261 inches, corresponding to a drill size F bit.

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard blind rivet tools accepting 1/4 inch body diameter rivets. Requires a drilled or punched hole with a diameter between 0.257 and 0.261 inches; use a drill size F bit for proper hole preparation.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a manual, pneumatic, or battery-powered blind rivet tool sized for 1/4 inch rivets. Verify hole diameter falls within the 0.257 to 0.261 inch range before setting the rivet to avoid a loose or over-stressed joint. Ensure material stack thickness is within the stated grip range of 0.501 to 0.625 inches; setting a rivet outside its grip range compromises clamp load and joint integrity. De-energize or lock out any equipment before fastening into live electrical enclosures or mechanical assemblies per applicable OSHA lockout-tagout procedures.
