Rivets Rapid 4.8 x 12 mm, pack of 50
Blind rivets Rapid 4.8 x 12 mm, pack of 50 are standard-size fasteners designed for permanent joining of thin metal, plastic or composite panels where access is available only from one side. Each rivet has a 4.8 mm diameter and a 12 mm grip length, offering a dependable mechanical connection for general assembly, repair and light construction tasks. The rivets are intended for use with hand or pneumatic rivet tools and provide a simple, repeatable fastening method when solid threads or through-bolts are not practical.
These blind rivets deliver consistent clamping and a neat finished appearance on the blind side. The 4.8 x 12 mm size suits a wide range of thin-sheet applications, enabling quick installation with minimal edge preparation. They form a permanent joint that resists vibration and loosening under normal service conditions. Installation requires only a compatible rivet tool, making the process efficient for individual repairs or repetitive production work.
Select a rivet with the correct grip length for the combined thickness of the materials to be joined. Drill a clearance hole matching the rivet diameter, insert the rivet through the aligned parts and place the mandrel in the rivet tool. Squeeze the tool to pull the mandrel and deform the rivet body until a secure bulbed head forms on the blind side; the mandrel will break off when the correct set is achieved. Verify the clamping and, if necessary, trim or deburr the hole edges for a clean finish. Use appropriate personal protective equipment during drilling and installation.
Choose rivet material compatible with the joined substrates to minimise galvanic corrosion; confirm tool jaw size matches the rivet mandrel. For repeated production use, a pneumatic rivet tool improves consistency and speed. Store rivets in a dry environment to preserve surface condition.
