CRL Blind Rivets in Cases are standard pack quantities as supplied from the factory. A blind rivet is a simple device for holding materials together. A solid metal mandrel is inserted into a tubular metal rivet, and supplied as an assembled unit. This becomes a fastener when the mandrel and rivet are inserted into aligned holes in the materials to be joined. The mandrel is pulled into the rivet by a rivet setting tool CRL Marson® HD Gun (commonly known as a rivet gun) to create a counterhead, then the mandrel is snapped off, leaving the finished fastener. This effective fastening system lends itself to virtually hundreds of applications, joining materials of many thicknesses and varieties. Blind Rivets were originally thought of as a specialty fastener for use in blind applications only, but they have proven their versatility in both high production assembly, and low volume piece work situations. Few fastening systems offer the flexibility of design, uniformity of results that Blind Rivets do. Blind Rivets feature: Low head profile and minimum back-up space; join thin gauge or dissimilar materials; vibration-proof - won't back out or shake loose; positive fastening of painted or finished components without possibility of surface marring; conform to industrial fasteners institute and appropriate government standards and specifications. Add to these advantages their ease of use, and you may begin to realize how using Blind Rivets could benefit your profit picture.

When selecting the proper blind rivet to meet your requirements, take into account the joint strength, joint thickness, and nature of materials to be joined.

Blind Rivets develop joint strength in two ways: by clinch of the counterhead and by compression of the rivet body agai
