Stainless Steel Closed End Blind Rivets

Closed-end blind rivets are designed with a sealed body that can provide improved resistance to water and moisture compared with open-end blind rivets. However, the waterproof performance of the finished joint also depends on hole size, joint design, installation quality and other assembly conditions.

The main difference is the structure of the rivet body. Open-end blind rivets have an open end, while closed-end blind rivets have a closed and sealed end. Closed-end rivets are therefore commonly selected when improved sealing and environmental protection are required.

The appropriate grade depends on the operating environment and corrosion requirements. 316 stainless steel generally provides higher corrosion resistance than 304 stainless steel and may be considered for marine and salt-exposed environments.

Yes. Stainless steel blind rivets work well in outdoor applications because they resist moisture and corrosion. For coastal or saltwater environments, we recommend 316 stainless steel blind rivets for better corrosion resistance. How do I choose the correct stainless steel blind rivet? Consider the material grade, rivet diameter, rivet length, grip range, mandrel material, hole size and environmental conditions. The correct combination depends on the joint design and application requirements.

Custom specifications may be available depending on the required dimensions, material, design and order quantity. When requesting a quotation, provide the required diameter, length, grip range, stainless steel grade and application details.
