Specialty Blind Rivets

PEEL

Peel rivets feature a distinct expansion mechanism where the rivet body bifurcates into multiple petals during mandrel retraction, creating an exceptionally large bearing surface on the blind side. This expansive footprint evenly distributes clamping forces, preventing pull-through and substrate distortion when fastening soft, brittle, or porous materials. Frequently manufactured from aluminum-magnesium alloys for corrosion resistance, they accommodate oversized or irregular holes without compromising joint integrity. They are predominantly utilized in mobile home construction, roofing insulation attachment, and the assembly of plastics, fiberglass, and plasterboard components.
