Ruwag Blind Rivet Countersunk 4.8x12mm (100) pack includes 100 rivets with a countersunk head, sized 4.8x12mm, used for fastening materials where a flush finish is needed

Ruwag Blind Rivet Countersunk 4.8x12mm (100) is a pack of 100 new blind rivets designed for securing materials where access is only available from one side. This countersunk rivet is sized at 4.8x12mm, suitable for applications requiring a flush finish after installation. Such rivets are commonly used in automotive and industrial repairs for joining sheet metal or similar parts where a neat surface is necessary.

The blind rivet functions by expanding on the blind side when installed, creating a secure and permanent fastening without the need for a nut or access behind the panel. The countersunk head ensures that the rivet sits flush with the surface, reducing snagging or protrusion. Buyers should compare the 4.8mm diameter and 12mm length with their original fastener to ensure compatibility with their project or vehicle application.

This listing is for the complete set of 100 rivets, making it ideal for larger repairs or ongoing maintenance tasks. When replacing rivets, confirm that the countersunk style matches your vehicle or equipment’s requirements and the diameter and length suits the thickness of the materials being joined. For further part inquiries or compatibility questions, contacting the sales team or submitting a part request is recommended.
