Description
Overview:
The Open Pop Rivet 4.8 x 12.5 mm is a general-purpose blind rivet made from lightweight aluminium for dependable fastening in construction, maintenance, and repair work. It is designed to pull and clamp materials from one side only, making it ideal where access to the rear is limited. The large flange head spreads the load across a wider area, helping to prevent pull-through on softer or thin sheet materials. Supplied in a 200 pack, these rivets are suitable for regular workshop and site use. They work with standard hand, battery, or pneumatic riveters fitted with a 4.8 mm nosepiece. Identified by MPN 965 408, this size is commonly used for metal fabrication, vehicle bodywork, and general equipment repairs on site or in the garage.
Key Features:
- Aluminium construction for a strong hold with low weight
- Large flange head distributes pressure to protect thin or softer materials
- Open-end design for quick, reliable setting with standard rivet tools
- 4.8 x 12.5 mm size suited to a wide range of light to medium-duty tasks
- Pack of 200 to support batch work and reduce downtime
- Clean finish on the show face; ideal where appearance matters
- Good corrosion resistance for outdoor and workshop environments
- Vibration-resistant mechanical fastening; will not loosen like screws
- Consistent quality for repeatable results across multiple joints
- Compatible with manual, cordless, and air riveters using a 4.8 mm mandrel tip
Typical Applications:
Use for fixing metal sheets, brackets, and profiles, including aluminium and steel panels. Common in automotive body repairs, HVAC ducting, roofing flashings, fencing and gate hardware, signage, cabinets, and garden machinery guards or covers. Suitable wherever a neat, permanent fastening is required from one-sided access.
