Sokkiniitti GESIPA 5×18 mm uppokanta KS 12,0–14,0 mm, 500 kpl pakkaus

Pack of 500 GESIPA blind rivets with 5×18 mm shank diameter and length and a countersunk (KS) head, intended for permanent fastening where a flush surface is required. These blind rivets are specified for use in material thicknesses from 12.0 to 14.0 mm and are compatible with standard blind-riveting tools. They are suitable for metal, sheet and composite assemblies in structural and repair applications where a discreet, flush finish and reliable joint strength are important.

Advantages

These 5×18 mm countersunk head blind rivets provide a flush finish that reduces protrusion on the visible side of an assembly, improving aesthetics and minimizing interference with mating parts. Supplied in a bulk pack of 500, they allow uninterrupted work on larger projects and reduce the need for frequent reordering. The rivets are designed for consistent mandrel break and clamp, providing repeatable grip and secure joints when used with appropriate blind-riveting tools.

Suitable for

• Assembly of metal panels and enclosures where flush surfaces are required
• Repairs to sheet metal, vehicle bodies and composite panels
• Structural fastening in HVAC, electrical cabinets and metal furniture
• Applications where access is available only from one side (blind fastening)

Key specifications

• Rivet nominal diameter: 5 mm
• Rivet length: 18 mm
• Head type: countersunk (KS) for a flush finish
• Recommended material thickness range: 12.0–14.0 mm
• Pack quantity: 500 pieces
• Compatibility: standard blind-riveting tools for 5 mm rivets

How to use

Select rivets with the appropriate length and head style for the combined thickness of the materials to be joined. Insert the rivet into the prepared hole, place the rivet gun over the mandrel and operate the tool according to its instructions until the mandrel snaps and the blind side bulges to form the blind head. Verify that the countersunk head sits flush with the workpiece and that the joint is tight and secure. If required, deburr the hole edges before riveting to ensure a clean finish and correct seating of the countersunk head.

Recommendations

Use rivets within the specified material thickness range (12.0–14.0 mm) and match the rivet diameter to the hole size recommended for 5 mm rivets. For consistent results, use a rivet tool designed for 5 mm mandrels and maintain the tool and dies in good condition. When working with coated or thin materials, consider pre-drilling and edge preparation to avoid distortion and ensure a flush countersunk seating.
