What are Sealed Blind Rivets?

Sealed Blind Rivets, similar to standard Dome Rivets in design and function, are a type of unthreaded fastener typically used to permanently join 2 or more panels together. 

The unique feature of a Sealed Rivet is that it features a locking mandrel (central pin) which creates a vibration-proof watertight seal when installed, eliminating the risk of leakage of gases or liquids.

Sealed Dome Rivets only require access to one side of a structure or part during installation, making them suitable for ‘blind’ installation. This type of Rivet is often selected for applications where a pressure tight seal is required, for example in electronics enclosures or white goods where the prevention of moisture leakage is essential.
