Rivet fasteners Vorel 70340, aluminium, pack of 50

Vorel 70340 aluminium rivets are blind fasteners supplied in a pack of 50 pieces, designed to join thin metal sheets, plastics and other thin materials where access is available from one side only. Made from aluminium, these rivets provide corrosion-resistant clamping with a lightweight body suitable for light to medium fastening tasks. They are compatible with standard hand and pneumatic rivet tools and intended for use in construction, automotive repair and general assembly applications.

Advantages

Aluminium construction offers reduced weight and good corrosion resistance for indoor and many outdoor uses. The blind rivet design allows installation where the back side of the joint is not accessible, providing consistent clamp force and a neat finish on the accessible side. Supplied in a pack of 50, the set supports multiple small projects and routine maintenance without frequent reordering.

Suitable for

• Joining thin sheet metal, aluminium panels and light alloys
• Attaching plastic panels and composite materials
• Automotive bodywork repairs and non-structural fastening
• Light construction and general assembly tasks
• Panel and trim installation where one-sided access is required

Key specifications

• Material: aluminium rivet body and mandrel designed for blind riveting
• Quantity: 50 pieces per pack
• Intended use: blind (one-sided) fastening of thin materials
• Compatibility: suitable for standard hand rivet guns and pneumatic rivet tools
• Application range: light to medium duty fastening

How to use

Prepare the components by aligning and clamping them together, then drill a hole sized to the rivet diameter through all materials. Insert a rivet into the hole, position the rivet gun over the mandrel and apply steady pressure until the mandrel snaps and the rivet body compresses to form the blind head. Remove any loose mandrel remnants and inspect the joint for proper compression and alignment. Use appropriate rivet size and grip range for material thickness to ensure secure fastening.

Usage recommendations

For reliable results, select rivet diameter and grip range matched to the combined thickness of joined materials. Use protective eyewear when installing rivets and ensure the rivet tool is rated for aluminium rivets. For outdoor or high-corrosion environments consider alternative materials or protective coatings suited to the application.
