Blind rivet GESIPA 6300952 aluminum/steel 5×14 mm flat head for 8–10 mm

Blind rivet GESIPA 6300952 is a flat-head, blind fastener with an aluminum body and a steel mandrel, dimensioned 5×14 mm and specified for a grip range of 8–10 mm. It is intended for single-sided installation when access to the joint is available only from one side. The rivet creates a reliable, vibration-resistant connection suitable for joining thin sheets, panels and profiles in repair and assembly tasks.

Advantages

The aluminum body offers corrosion resistance and reduced weight while the steel mandrel provides controlled setting and high shear strength. The flat head design ensures a low-profile finish on the visible side of the workpiece. These rivets are engineered for consistent expansion and secure clamping across the specified grip range, delivering repeatable results with hand or pneumatic setting tools.

Suitable for

• Joining thin metal sheets and panels
• Automotive bodywork repairs and interior fittings
• Lightweight structural assemblies and profiles
• Construction and HVAC panel fastening
• Applications requiring single-sided access

Key specifications

• Body material: aluminum
• Mandrel material: steel
• Rivet dimensions: 5×14 mm (diameter × length)
• Head type: flat head
• Grip range: 8–10 mm
• Suitable for single-sided blind installation

How to use

Select a compatible blind-rivet setting tool and the correct nosepiece for a 5 mm rivet diameter. Drill a hole through the materials matching the rivet diameter, insert the rivet through the components to be joined until the head sits flush on the visible side, and position the tool over the mandrel. Operate the setting tool until the mandrel breaks off and the rivet body flares to form a secure blind-side bulge. Remove any mandrel remnants from the tool and inspect the joint for proper clamping and head seating.

Recommendations

For best results, ensure hole diameter and grip range match the rivet specification and use a setting tool rated for aluminum/steel blind rivets. Avoid over-tightening by confirming the mandrel breaks cleanly; inspect assembled joints for correct bulge and absence of material deformation. Store rivets in a dry place to prevent contamination prior to installation.
