[100 4-4 | 1 & 8 x 1 & 4 Grip (0.188 - 0.250)]
Closed End Rivets differ from a standard blind pop rivet due to their closed end which creates a watertight seal. Closed end rivets are used to attach materials quickly and efficiently. These rivets also boast a higher tensile strength than regular pop rivets.

Stainless Steel RivetsBlind rivets in this selection are made entirely of 18-8 stainless steel, meaning that both the hat and mandrel are stainless. This grade of stainless steel is corrosion and rust resistant, and is the standard grade for stainless steel fasteners. |
Benefits of Closed End RivetsClosed End Pop Rivets are often referred to as sealed blind rivets, or sealing rivets because they create a watertight seal when installed properly, making them a popular item in the boating and automotive industries. Closed end pop rivets also provide a complete mandrel retention which gives the sealed rivet a higher tensile strength and can be important in electronic and electrical applications. |
Domed HeadLike a standard pop rivet, closed end rivets leave behind a smooth domed head. During installation, the mandrel snaps off as it is pulled through the body of the rivet on the blind side of the application. |
