Blind Rivets are multi-piece rivet assemblies, capable of being installed from one side of the workpiece.Traditionally, blind rivets were used on aircraft leading edges, trailing edges, and close out areas which are limited to access to one side of the structure.  Current blind rivet usage has expanded to many additional areas of the aircraft in an effort to decrease labor expense and to address the ergonomic issues of solid riveting.

The CherryMAX® locked spindle blind rivets by CHERRY® AEROSPACE are the most reliable, high strength structural fasteners with visual inspectability in the world today. They are also known as "bulbed" fasteners due to their large blind side bearing surface, developed during the installation process. They feature a a visibly inspectable  "Safe-lock" locking collar for more reliable joint integrity, and their own installation washers, which eliminate the problems resulting from worn tool anvils. CherryMAX® rivets are used in thin sheet applications and in materials that may be damaged by other types of blind rivets. They meet the requirements of PS-CMR-3000 and can be supplied in 1/8" through 1/4" diameters in both nominal (CR3212 and CR3213 Series) and 1/64" oversize diameters (CR3242 and CR3243 Series).

MS20604 and MS20605 Standard pull-thru rivets are unique blind rivets typically used in nut plate applications. MS20604 and MS20605 series blind rivets are superseded by those of NASM20604 and NASM20605 respectively.They are both non structural blind rivets with universal head (MS20604) or 100 deg. flush head (MS20605). These rivets are ideal in circumstances with very limited clearance while allowing for a secure set on both sides of the application. The symmetrical insertion allows for access and installation on either side while retaining its blind rivet capacity of one-sided installation. NASM/MS 20604 rivets come with a Universal Head, allowing for ease of installation while retaining strength and security. 

Sourced from quality manufacturers, NASM20604/MS20604 and NASM20605/MS20605 blind rivets are offered either as part of our own label (AVIATIONEU NEW ERA) product lines or as OEM parts of PCC CHERRY® AEROSPACE and other manufacturers (separately listed). They are available in different mil-spec approved materials, such as 2117-T4 grade Aluminum or 5056 Grade Aluminum, finishes and sizes. They are sold in packs of specified number of rivets per pack indicated after the letters "PK" in the product reference code (SKU).

POP® PRG510A/MCS510A series air rivet guns are strong, compact, and trouble-free pneumatic tools ideal for continuous high-production riveting.
