Overview
Open end blind rivets are the most common type of blind rivet. They fasten parts through a properly prepared hole from one side only, and suit a well-defined material thickness.
Choose the body and mandrel material for joint strength, compatibility with the parts, corrosion resistance and cost. Dome, countersunk and large flange heads are available.
