Why choose peel type blind rivets?If the materials you are joining are soft or brittle, common blind rivets may damage them.Peel type blind rivets are uniquely designed to provide a large contact area and spread the load. Let’s find out more!

Peel Type Blind Rivets are specially designed blind rivets for joining soft or brittle materials. Its unique structure allows the rivet to form a “Peel” structure during installation, providing a larger contact area and more uniform force distribution for the connected materials. When installing peel rivets, the body of the rivet separates like a banana.
Like other blind rivets, peel blind rivets are structurally different but work on the same principle. Both insert the rivet into a pre-drilled hole, but when the mandrel is pulled, the blind side splits into petals, thus spreading the load on the joint.
Peel type blind rivets are ideal for joining soft and brittle materials. It allows for connections with or higher tensile and shear strengths that will not pull out. In addition to this, it is also possible to join different types of materials. For example fiberglass and wood or metal and plastic.
Types of Peel Type Blind Rivets
In practice, there are several types of peel type blnd rivets depending on the standard. These include dome head peel blind rivets and large flange peel blind rivets.
Dome Head Peel Type Blind Rivets
Dome Head Peel Type Blind Rivets have a round head design for a smooth and decorative appearance. The stripped construction makes this rivet particularly suitable for joining thin plates, brittle materials or applications where uniform stress distribution is required.
Large Flange Head Peel Type Blind Rivets
Compared to Dome Head Peel Type Blind Rivets, large flange head peel rivets provide greater contact area and support. The head has a larger flange, which means the head diameter is larger than the standard rivet head diameter. This design provides a larger surface contact area, which helps to distribute loading stresses and reduce the risk of material damage.
Colored Peel Type Blind Rivets
Colored Peel Type Blind Rivets are rivets that are based on the standard Peel Type Blind Rivet and have their head or the entire body of the rivet treated with a special treatment, such as painting or plating, to provide a specific colo. These rivets not only provide a mechanical connection, but also have a decorative or marking function.
This type of peel rivets has a very good decorative effect. The colored coating not only enhances the aesthetic appearance of the rivet, but also matches the surrounding materials or overall design. And of course by using different colors, you can mark specific parts or mounting locations during the assembly process for easy identification and sorting.

Applications of Peel Type Blind Rivets
Peel type blind rivets are used in a wide range of industries, especially those involving thin, brittle materials and multi-material combinations. Their peel design provides a large support area and uniform stress distribution, which can effectively avoid material damage and improve connection strength.
1. Household Appliances
If you have paid attention, you will find that peel rivets are used a lot in the shell assembly of washing machines, refrigerators, air conditioners and other home appliances.
This is because peel blinds can effectively connect different materials such as metal and plastic, providing a firm fixing to avoid loosening, while their smooth appearance suits the aesthetic requirements of home appliances.
2. Automotive Interior
In the automotive production process, peel blind rivets are also used in the assembly of automotive instrument panels, door panels, seats and other interior components.
Peel blind rivets create uniform support on flexible and brittle materials such as plastics and composites, effectively preventing material breakage due to stress concentrations.
3. Furniture Manufacturing
If you are your project is for joining furniture pieces made of wood, plastic or composite materials. Then peel rivets will be perfect for you.
The support and solidity provided by its peel rivets design makes it ideal for assembling furniture pieces while also providing a great look.
4.Architectural Decoration
During building construction, peel rivets can be used to secure decorative building materials such as metal panels, partitions, parapets, etc.
Peel type blind rivets are uniquely designed to handle thin panels and brittle materials, providing a strong hold and an attractive appearance, while their corrosion resistance makes them suitable for outdoor applications.
Importance of Using Peel Type Blind Rivets
Peel type blind rivets are widely used in many applications and their importance is reflected in the multiple benefits that come with their unique design and features. The following are the importance of using Peel type blind rivets:
1. Protection of Brittle Materials
Peel blind rivets split into multiple “petal” shapes during installation, creating a large back support area. This structure can effectively spread the stress, to avoid the concentrated force caused by the material breakage or cracking, especially for brittle materials such as plastics, fiberglass and composite materials. This characteristic makes Peel Blind Rivets ideal for fixing brittle materials, providing a reliable connection without damaging the material.
2. Suitable for Thin Sheet and Multi-layer Materials
The design of the Peel Blind Rivet allows it to form strong connections in thin plates and multi-layer materials. The peeled petal can provide enough clamping force on the backside to prevent deformation or tearing of the thin material. This is particularly important in areas where thin materials are required, such as electronic equipment, automotive interiors and household appliances.
3. Uniform Stress Distribution
Peel construction provides uniform stress distribution, avoiding the stress concentration problems that can result from traditional rivets or screws. Uniform stress distribution not only improves the strength and stability of the connection, but also extends the service life of the connection part and reduces the risk of fatigue damage.
4. Anti-vibration Performance
The shape of the peeled petal provides a degree of vibration resistance that helps to absorb and disperse vibration. This makes Peeled Blind Rivets a reliable choice in applications where anti-vibration properties are required, such as automotive and appliance equipment.
5. Versatility and Flexibility
Peel type blind rivets can accommodate a wide range of materials and applications. These include metal, plastic, wood, etc. In addition, Peel Blind Rivets can be coated or color coded as needed to provide additional decoration or functionality.
How Do You Choose the Right Peel Type Blind Rivets?
Like all blind rivets, peel type blind rivets are available in different materials and head styles. To ensure that peel rivets will meet the needs of your project, you need to consider several factors:
- Material properties
- Rivet size
- Head shape
- Special needs
Material Properties
The most common material combination for peel rivets is aluminum/steel, which meets the strength requirements for the deformation of peel blind rivets while providing a stable and strong connection.
Rivet Size
The dimensions of peel rivets include diameter and length.
You will need to select the appropriate rivet diameter to ensure that it will fit into the pre-drilled hole. The hole diameter is usually 0.1-0.2 mm larger than the rivet diameter to allow for smooth installation.
The next thing to consider is the length. Choose the length of the rivet based on the total thickness of the material to be joined. Generally, the rivet length should be at least 1.5 times longer than the total thickness of the material to ensure adequate stripping and a strong connection.
Head Shape
The peel blind rivets are available in two head styles. (dome head and large flange head)You can make your purchase depending on the needs of your project!
Special Needs
If your project has specific needs for peel rivets, such as color and appearance requirements for the rivets.
If a specific color is required to meet the appearance requirements or to identify the application, you can choose the stripped blind rivets with color coating. You can ask our engineers about your needs and we can provide you with a corresponding solution.
