Ruwag Blind Rivet Countersunk 4.8x15mm (25) is a pack of 25 blind rivets designed for automotive use. Suitable for countersunk hole fastening applications

Ruwag Blind Rivet Countersunk 4.8x15mm (25) is a pack of 25 new countersunk blind rivets designed for secure fastening in automotive and general repair tasks. These rivets are commonly used where access is only possible from one side of the assembly, making them ideal for joining thin materials such as metal sheets or plastics without requiring a nut or backing piece.

This particular blind rivet features a countersunk head, which allows it to sit flush with the surface, minimizing protrusion and enabling a smooth finish. With a diameter of 4.8mm and length of 15mm, these rivets are suitable for applications that require moderate grip and holding strength. Buyers should compare the dimensions and head style of the old rivet to ensure compatibility with their repair or assembly needs.

When selecting this rivet, confirm it matches the size and type needed for your project or vehicle repair. This part is helpful for fastening panels, trim, or other components securely where traditional bolts cannot be applied. For additional help identifying the correct rivet or to request a specialist part, consider contacting the sales desk or using vehicle part finder tools.

Helpful product answers
What are the key features of the Ruwag Blind Rivet Countersunk 4.8x15mm?
The Ruwag Blind Rivet Countersunk 4.8x15mm is designed for secure fastening where a flush finish is needed. Its countersunk head allows it to sit neatly within the material surface, preventing snags or protrusions. This pack contains 25 rivets, suitable for medium-duty applications.
Which materials are compatible with the Ruwag Blind Rivet Countersunk 4.8x15mm?
These rivets work well with metals like aluminum and steel, as well as some plastics. They are ideal for joining thin sheets where access is only available from one side. Always ensure the material thickness matches the rivet length for optimal performance.
Can I reuse the Ruwag Blind Rivet Countersunk 4.8x15mm after removal?
No, blind rivets are designed for one-time use only. Attempting to reuse them can compromise the joint's strength and safety. If you need to disassemble, remove the rivet by drilling it out and replace it with a new one.
What is a common mistake when installing these blind rivets and how can I avoid it?
A frequent error is using a rivet that is too short or too long for the material thickness, leading to weak joints or damage. To avoid this, measure the combined thickness of the materials accurately and select the rivet length accordingly. Proper tool use and steady pressure during installation also ensure a secure fit.
Are there any special tools required to install the Ruwag Blind Rivet Countersunk 4.8x15mm?
Yes, a blind rivet gun or riveter is necessary to install these rivets properly. The tool pulls the mandrel through the rivet body, expanding it to clamp the materials together. Using the correct size rivet gun for 4.8mm rivets ensures efficient and safe installation.
