GESIPA K14 standard rivets with a large head, made of aluminium and steel, Ø 5x16mm, are engineered for secure fastening in applications where a wide bearing surface is required. Supplied in packs of 250, these rivets are ideal for robust, high-shear connections.
Insert the rivet into a pre-drilled 5.1 mm hole. Use a rivet tool or pliers to pull the mandrel, expanding the rivet body and forming a secure joint. The large head distributes load, making these rivets suitable for materials prone to deformation or needing increased shear resistance.
What materials are these rivets made from?
The rivet body is aluminium, and the mandrel is steel with a zinc-plated finish for enhanced durability.
What is the recommended hole diameter for installation?
The optimal hole diameter for these rivets is 5.1 mm.
What is the purpose of the large K14 head?
The 14 mm large flange provides a broad bearing surface, distributing load and increasing resistance to pull-through.
Can these rivets be installed with extended nozzle tools?
Yes, the mandrel length is suitable for installation using nozzle extensions up to 10 mm.
What applications are these rivets best suited for?
They are ideal for fastening sheet metal, plastics, or composites where a large bearing surface and high shear resistance are required.
