Peel blind rivets are required if soft or porous parts such as wood, hard-fibre, fibreglass or plasterboards need to be joined together. In the setting process, the rivet mandrel falls out of the rivet body, and on the closing head side the rivet mandrel splits the rivet shaft into four parts. These then grip into the material. Typical application fields are the assembly of plastic and wooden elements, caravan constructions and the attachment of interior panels.
