Grooved Pop Rivets
Grooved pop rivets a special type of rivet with a grooved structure, usually used to join materials with low strength or brittle materials. For example, wood, plastic, composite materials, etc.
When grooved rivets are properly installed, the grooves in the rivet’s subject bite into the wood or plastic, providing additional mechanical grip and holding power.

What Are Grooved Pop Rivets?
A grooved blind rivet is a type of rivet with a grooved construction, typically used to join low strength or brittle materials. The grooved design increases the friction and retention of the rivet in the material, preventing the rivet from slipping or loosening.
What Materials are Grooved Pop Rivets Used for?
Grooved Blind Rivets are suitable for softer or brittle materials such as wood, plastics, composites, and thin metals. These materials require extra grip when joining to prevent the rivet from coming loose.Grooved pop rivets have a special grooved construction that provides excellent mechanical grip and retention.
What are the Common Materials Used to Manufacture Grooved Blind Rivets?
Grooved Blind Rivets are typically made from aluminum, steel, stainless steel, and copper. Aluminum rivets are commonly used in lightweight applications, while steel and stainless steel rivets are suitable for applications that require more strength.
Rivmate offers grooved rivets in Aluminum/Steel combinations. this is the most common material combination. Of course, if your project has special needs, you can contact our engineers!
What Are the Main Advantages of Grooved Pop Rivets?
Grooved blind rivets offer many features not found in other blind rivets, in addition to the usual benefits of blind rivets. Two of the most important features are listed below:
- Strong Grip and Holding Power
- Suitable for brittle and soft materials.
Grooved rivets have a grooved design that provides extra grip and retention, providing extra friction. It is particularly suitable for low strength materials. And the grooves are embedded in the material, preventing the rivets from loosening when subjected to shearing or pulling forces.
When grooved rivets are installed correctly, their grooves are effectively embedded in these materials, dispersing stress and providing a more stable connection. This helps to avoid cracking or damage to the material while ensuring a strong connection.
What is the Difference Between Grooved Blind Rivets and Standard Blind Rivets?
Grooved Blind Rivets are distinguished by a Grooved design on the surface of the rivet body, which provides additional friction and holding power. Regular blind rivets typically do not have this groove pattern and may not perform well in low strength materials.
Do I Need Special Tools to Install Grooved Pop Rivets?
No special tools are usually required to install grooved blind rivets. Like regular blind rivets, they can be installed using standard manual, pneumatic or electric rivet guns.
Are Grooved Pop Rivets Removable?
Grooved Blind Rivets are designed to be a permanent joint and are very difficult to remove once installed. If removal is required, it is usually necessary to use specialized tools such as a drill to drill out the rivet, which may damage the joining material or the rivet itself.

Why Import Grooved Pop Rivets from China?
Many manufacturers or distributors in the world who use blind rivets choose to import blind rivets from China. So do you know why they import blind rivets from China instead of buying them locally? There are mainly several reasons:
- Price advantage
- Advanced manufacturing technology
- Strong customization capability
- Rich customer experience
China’s manufacturing industry has a clear cost advantage, especially in the case of low raw material and labor costs. Imported grooved blind rivets can significantly reduce purchasing costs and improve profitability.
And our factory has advanced production equipment and process technology, can produce high quality blind rivets with grooved pattern, in line with international quality standards (such as ISO, DIN, etc.)
