- POP rivets, also called Blind Rivets, are used to connect two pieces of material in a quick efficient manner with a hand riveter or pneumatic rivet gun.
- POP Rivets are tubular, composed of a hat and mandrel; the length of the mandrel is snapped off when installed.
- Both the hat and mandrel may be made of the same material (ex. All Stainless Steel) or a combination of two materials (ex. Copper Hat / Brass Mandrel). Rivets are measured in installed grip range and length.
- Varieties of POP Rivets (Blind Rivets) include Domed Open End, Closed End, Countersunk, Large Flange Open End, Multi Grip and Structural. They are available in 304 Stainless Steel, Aluminum, Alloy Steel, Copper, Brass, and several other variations of these metals.
The most common way to specify a rivet size is by 'trade size'. For example 6-6. The first number refers to the diameter of the rivet in 32nds of an inch. The second number refers to the maximum grip length in 16ths of an inch.
Therefore diameter is 6/32nds = 3/16th =approx 5mm, and Grip Length is 6/16ths = 3/8th = approx 9.5mm. Thus a 6-6 rivet is 5mm diameter with agrip length of 9.5mm.
