THE STRUCTURE
For technical reasons, the rivet mandrel of the
GESIPA® CAP ® blind rivet must be fixed in the rivet body.
However this means that the rivet body can only deform
slightly during the setting process. As a result, the cap
blind rivet only has marginal hole filling capability.
However this is necessary to be able to compensate
large borehole tolerances.
TIGHT CONNECTIONS WITH CARE
The above-mentioned technical situations make careful
preparation of the application imperative. The hole
diameter should be as tight as possible to ensure a
flawless function in the application for a long period.
If the GESIPA® CAP® blind rivet is processed carefully,
it forms the basis for a reliably „tight“ connection.

What Is A Blind Rivet?
A blind rivet consists of two parts: the hollow rivet and the mandrel body. The hollow rivet has a setting head and a rivet body. The setting head is located on the processing side and is available with a range of diameters and in different forms. The head variants are as follows: dome head, countersunk and large flange. The rivet body comes in different lengths that will depend on the thickness of the material to be riveted. The job of the mandrel body is to deform the rivet body. It has a predetermined breaking point, at which the mandrel body breaks off once the rivet has been deformed sufficiently. The filling section is the portion of the mandrel body that is left behind in the hollow rivet. The spent mandrel is the portion of the mandrel body that is removed from the set rivet using the blind riveting tool and disposed of.
How To Installing?
During the setting process, the mandrel body is moved using the setting tool jaws, deforming the hollow rivet until it is firmly positioned in the component as predefined. In the end, the mandrel body breaks off at the specified point (the predetermined breaking point) and can be disposed of via the recycling system. The rest mandrel is the spent mandrel left behind in the hollow rivet and can provide an additional locking function depending on the application in question.
