How to fit a rivet

First, drill with a 5 mm bit with the holes aligned and the parts firmly held. Then insert the rivet until the head is flush, without forcing it. Then place the riveter on the mandrel, square to the hole, and squeeze until the rivet expands and the mandrel snaps.

Frequently asked questions about rivets

What's the difference between dome head and large flange rivets?

The large flange is 13.8 mm compared with 9 mm for the dome head. That way it spreads the force better and holds better in soft materials or larger holes.

What length of rivet do I need?

It depends on the total thickness of the parts you're going to join. The table shows the grip range for each size: for example, the 4.8 × 16 joins 9.5 to 11.5 mm.

Which drill bit do I need?

A drill bit of 5 mm for all 4.8 mm rivets.

What are they fitted with?

With a manual, cordless or pneumatic riveter. You only need access to one side of the parts.

Do you ship?

Yes. We deliver across Tenerife and ship to the other islands. You can also collect them from our warehouse in Icod de los Vinos.
