5mm Metric Aluminium / Steel Blind Pop Rivets

Product Description

5mm Aluminium and Steel Blind Pop Rivets

These 5mm standard blind pop rivets feature a lightweight aluminium body and a zinc-plated steel break mandrel. They provide a quick and permanent fastening solution for joining sheet metal, panels and other components where access is available from only one side of the assembly.

The standard dome head—described as a protruding head in ISO terminology—provides a neat finish and distributes the clamping load across the surrounding material. The aluminium body offers good general corrosion resistance, while the steel mandrel provides the strength required to set the rivet securely.

Key Features

• Nominal rivet diameter: 5mm
• Available lengths: 8mm, 12mm, 16mm, 20mm, 25mm and 30mm
• Body material: aluminium alloy
• Mandrel material: zinc-plated steel
• Head style: standard dome or protruding head
• Open-end blind-rivet construction
• Suitable for installation from one side of the workpiece
• Long-length options available for thicker assemblies
• Available individually or in bulk pack quantities

Select a rivet whose stated grip range includes the total combined thickness of the materials being joined. Prepare a clean 5.1mm installation hole and use a riveting tool with sufficient capacity for 5mm aluminium blind rivets.

Typical Applications

• Sheet-metal fabrication
• Automotive body panels and trim
• Machinery guards and equipment housings
• Signs, brackets and enclosures
• Ventilation and ducting assemblies
• General maintenance and repairs
• Thicker panel assemblies requiring extended-length rivets

Applicable Standards

ISO 15977 and its identical British adoption, BS EN ISO 15977, cover open-end blind rivets with break-pull mandrels, protruding heads, aluminium alloy bodies and steel mandrels in nominal diameters from 2.4mm up to and including 6.4mm.

DIN 7337 is the related withdrawn legacy standard for break-mandrel blind rivets. It has been replaced by material- and head-specific EN ISO standards, with DIN EN ISO 15977 applying to this aluminium-body and steel-mandrel combination.

Compliance with these standards should only be stated where the product's dimensions, materials, tolerances and mechanical properties have been verified against the relevant standard.

Please note that specifications are provided as a guide. Check all critical dimensions, grip requirements and material compatibility before ordering.
