DEDRA 11Y302 rivet

Aluminum blind rivets Dedra 3.2x10 mm, pack of 50 are cold-formed fasteners designed for permanent joining of thin metal sheets, plastics and other lightweight materials where access to the blind side is restricted. These rivets create a secure, corrosion-resistant connection with a low profile head suitable for visible surfaces and applications that require a neat finish. Supplied in a pack of 50, they are intended for assembly, repair and maintenance tasks in construction, automotive and do-it-yourself projects.

Advantages

These aluminum blind rivets combine lightweight construction with resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor environments. Their blind installation capability allows fastening where only one side of the joint is accessible. The 3.2x10 mm dimensions provide a balance between shear strength and minimal material displacement, and the pack quantity supports small-to-medium jobs without frequent reordering.

Suitable for

• Joining thin sheet metal panels and bodywork repairs
• Securing plastic panels, trims and non-structural components
• Lightweight metal fabrication and prototype assembly
• Interior fittings, signage and electrical enclosures

Key specifications

• Material: aluminum rivet body and mandrel
• Head style: standard dome (low profile) head
• Rivet diameter: 3.2 mm
• Grip range / grip thickness: suitable for thin materials (approx. 1.0–2.5 mm total stack, verify fit before use)
• Rivet length: 10 mm
• Corrosion resistance: suitable for non-aggressive environments
• Pack quantity: 50 pieces

How to use

Prepare mating parts by aligning holes with the recommended drill diameter for a 3.2 mm rivet. Insert the rivet through the assembled materials until the head sits flush against the visible surface. Use a manual or pneumatic blind rivet tool to pull the mandrel until the tail expands and forms a firm blind-side bulge; the mandrel will snap off when proper set is reached. Verify the joint for correct deformation and secure fit, and remove any metal shavings or debris from the work area.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate eye protection and follow the rivet tool manufacturer's safety instructions. For outdoor or marine exposure, assess material compatibility and consider alternative materials or coatings. Test on scrap pieces to confirm grip range and tool settings before final installation.
