Split Rivet Truss Head 5/32 in Diameter

This MIDWEST FASTENER CORP split rivet features a truss head and a 5/32 inch diameter with a 7/16 inch length. It is constructed from steel for general fastening tasks. The product is supplied new and carries the manufacturer part number 61871. It serves as a permanent mechanical fastener for joining materials.

Check Material Thickness

Verify that the combined material thickness matches the 7/16 inch rivet length for proper clinch formation. Ensure the pre-drilled hole diameter suits a 5/32 inch rivet body to avoid loose fits or installation damage. Confirm the steel material is compatible with the intended environment to prevent corrosion. California Proposition 65 warnings indicate the presence of chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Installs With Standard Rivet Tools For Permanent

This fastener requires a rivet setter or hammer to expand the split shank during installation. It creates a permanent joint that cannot be removed without destroying the rivet. The truss head provides a low-profile finish with a broad bearing surface. No additional components are needed beyond the installation tool and personal protective equipment.

Questions about this item

Does the box contain only the split rivets or are installation tools included?

The package supplies the MIDWEST FASTENER 61871 split rivets with truss heads; a rivet gun or setting tool must be purchased separately.

How do I decide between the 5/32 inch diameter and a different size for my repair?

Choose the 5/32 inch diameter when the pre-drilled holes in your material match that size; the 7/16 inch length suits material stacks of roughly that thickness.

What does the Proposition 65 notice mean for everyday workshop use?

The rivets contain a chemical listed by California as a cancer and reproductive-hazard risk; wear gloves, avoid creating dust when drilling them out, and wash hands after handling.
