Assembled with enhanced design special steel nail with 1,000 pounds pulling power for outstanding clamping action on your application. Take a look at the Advantages when using our ABS610Expeel exploding rivets.
1. Works in over-sized, oblong and worn out holes up to 1/4″
2. Tight clamp-up and holding power, from 1/8″ to 9/16″ with 1,000 pounds clamping power.
3. NO back-up washer needed. The banana type peeling action will clamp without needing a back up washer.
4. These rivets will work with any functioning blind rivet setting tool.
5. The unique peeling action pulls multiple layers of application together from the extreme back end of the rivet. Unlike other “exploding” rivets which only pull from the middle of the rivets length and often don’t clamp multiple sheets tight.
Recommended application conditions for our ABS610Expeel exploding rivets: Start with Drill size 7/32″ for 0.213 to 0.220 hole diameter. The application thickness before the rivet is inserted should be between 1/8″ to 9/16″. This will allow our 3/16″ diameter high alloy Aluminum rivet body with 3/8″ dome head size and steel nail to perform as intended.
These ABS610Expeel exploding rivets are often used in applications where the holes have either become oval or just too big for standard 3/16″ diameter rivets. When the tool pulls the mandrel or nail, the head of the nail begins spliting, then pedaling back the rivet body just like you would commonly peel a banana. While the four pedals peel, they spread out and pull down the backside materials to form a tight, pulled together application that won’t come loose too easily due to the 1000 pulling power of this rivet’s nail. Good selection for fastening fiberglass, sheet metal and many other materials.
