Blind rivet GESIPA 1433488 Aluminium Steel 8mm Head 4mm Tail 12mm Length

GESIPA 1433488 is a blind rivet with an aluminium body and a steel mandrel, featuring an 8 mm dome head, 4 mm tail shank and a 12 mm total length. Supplied in packs of 500, this blind rivet is intended for general fastening tasks where a permanent, vibration-resistant joint is required. The combination of aluminium body and steel mandrel offers a balance of lightweight corrosion resistance and strong setting force.

Advantages

These GESIPA blind rivets are available in a standard range of materials and sizes to suit many assembly needs. The aluminium/steel combination provides good corrosion resistance on the rivet body while the steel mandrel ensures reliable expansion and secure clamping. Standard stock availability makes them suitable for routine production and maintenance work.

Suitable for

• Joining thin metal sheets and panels
• Sheet-to-frame and sheet-to-profile assemblies
• Applications requiring a closed (dome) head finish
• General industrial and maintenance fastening tasks

How to use

Drill a hole matching the rivet tail diameter in the components to be joined. Insert the blind rivet through the assembled parts until the head sits flush against the surface. Use a compatible rivet gun or setting tool to pull the mandrel until the rivet body expands and clamps the materials. Continue pulling until the mandrel breaks off; discard the spent mandrel. Verify the joint for correct clamp and alignment after setting.

Recommendations

Use rivets from the same production batch for consistent setting behaviour. Select a hole diameter that matches the 4 mm tail for proper expansion. For corrosive environments, consider surface-treated or fully non-ferrous rivet types if dissimilar metal contact with aluminium is a concern.
