Gesipa Blind rivet Rivet shank d x l 5 x 10 mm steel / steel 500 pieces

GESIPA blind rivets ensure a permanently secure joining of various, even sensitive materials. The blind riveting technology from GESIPA has become indispensable in many modern industrial productions where connection technology is required, due to its cost-effectiveness and versatility. It combines advantages such as overcoming limited access to components, permanently secure joining of various, even sensitive materials, and, upon request, even documentation of the setting process.

From a technical perspective, the blind rivet consists of two components: the hollow rivet and the rivet mandrel. While screws, clinching, and punched rivets require access to both sides of the component, the unique feature of the blind rivet is that only one-sided access is necessary. During the setting process, the rivet mandrel is pulled with the jaws of the setting tool, deforming the hollow rivet until it reaches a predefined, secure fit in the component. Finally, the mandrel breaks off at the designated point, the predetermined breaking point, and the remaining mandrel can be sent for recycling. The remaining mandrel is the part of the mandrel that stays in the hollow rivet and can take on an additional securing function depending on the application.

The perfect connector for every application, as blind rivets are available in a wide variety of designs, materials, shapes, lengths, and colors. Depending on the task a blind rivet is to fulfill, GESIPA offers a choice between a standard model available from stock or a blind rivet specifically designed for a particular application. A rule of thumb for determining the rivet shaft length is: material thickness + rivet shaft diameter = rivet shaft length.
