304 Stainless Steel GB12618 Semi-Steel Core-Pulling Oval Head Open End Blind Rivet

Description

The Open End Blind Rivet is a high-performance, single-sided mechanical fastener designed for efficient assembly in applications where access is restricted to only one side of the material. Also known as a core-pulling rivet, this model conforms to the Chinese national standard GB/T 12618, ensuring dimensional consistency and quality. This specific rivet utilizes a semi-steel core rivet construction, combining a corrosion-resistant 304 Stainless Steel body (rivet sleeve) with a high-strength steel mandrel (core) for superior shear and tensile strength. The open end allows the mandrel to be pulled through, creating a secure joint without sealing the rivet's tail, making it ideal for non-sealing structural joints. The oval head provides an excellent bearing surface for reliable clamping force. It is commonly used in automotive, marine, electronics, construction, and metal fabrication applications that require durable and secure joints.

Features & Benefits

• Dual Material Construction: The body is made from 304 Stainless Steel, providing high corrosion resistance and a clean, long-lasting aesthetic. The core is a stronger steel alloy, often with a protective surface treatment (White washing), to ensure the mandrel can withstand the pulling force required to form the joint.
• Oval Head Design: The wide, dome-shaped head (oval head) distributes the clamping force over a larger area, protecting soft materials and enhancing the joint's stability against high shear forces.
• Consistent Quality: Conforms to GB12618 standard, guarantees dimensional accuracy, excellent workmanship, and reliable performance across large batches.
• Ease of Installation: The core-pulling mechanism allows for rapid, secure, and permanent fastening using a simple riveting tool, drastically reducing assembly time compared to traditional fasteners.
