Rivet KS Tools 150.9635 Weight 40 g

The KS Tools 150.9635 rivet is a lightweight fastening component weighing 40 g, intended for creating permanent joins in thin materials. Manufactured with durable materials and a compact form, this rivet is compatible with manual and pneumatic rivet tools and is suitable for applications where a low-profile, secure fastening is required. The design balances ease of handling with the mechanical strength needed for repeated use in assembly, repair, and finishing tasks.

Advantages

This rivet combines a light overall weight with a robust construction that resists deformation during setting. Its compact dimensions enable access to confined spaces, while uniform shank and head geometry ensure consistent seating and clamping force. The component is produced to provide repeatable, reliable performance across multiple work cycles and is suitable for both professional workshops and home projects.

Suitable for

• Joining thin sheet metals and panels
• Repair and maintenance of equipment enclosures
• Installation of trims, brackets and lightweight fittings
• DIY projects requiring a permanent, vibration-resistant fastener

Key specifications

• Weight: 40 g
• Material: corrosion-resistant metal alloy (typical for rivets of this type)
• Head style: low-profile head suitable for reduced clearance
• Shank form: designed for blind riveting with reliable expansion and clamping
• Compatibility: suitable for manual and pneumatic rivet tools sized for this rivet profile

How to use

Select a rivet tool compatible with the rivet head and shank dimensions. Prepare the materials to be joined by aligning and clamping them, then drill a hole matching the rivet shank diameter. Insert the rivet through the parts, seat the head against the surface, and operate the rivet tool until the mandrel snaps or the rivet forms the designed blind-side bulge. After setting, remove any remaining mandrel stub if necessary and inspect the joint for secure clamping and flush seating.

Recommendations

Use rivets of the correct diameter and length for the combined material thickness. Pre-drill holes with a properly sized drill bit and avoid over-tightening or excessive tool force that could deform the rivet head. Store rivets in a dry place to prevent surface corrosion and choose a tool with appropriate pulling force to ensure consistent installation.
