Stanley Aluminium Rivet, 1/4 in thread 4 mm

This rivet is a lightweight aluminium fastener designed for joining materials where a blind or through rivet is required. It is supplied with a plastic exterior finish and is suitable for environments where a compact, corrosion-resistant joining solution is needed. The component conforms to RoHS exemption status and is intended for use where a small-diameter permanent mechanical joint is appropriate.

• 4mm body diameter offers minimal hole displacement for neat joints
• 7mm shank length enables low-profile fastening in thin substrates
• 1/4 inch thread size provides compatibility with matched mandrel tools
• Aluminium construction reduces weight while resisting corrosion
• Plastic finish minimises surface abrasion and protects mating parts

• Suitable for fastening thin sheet‑metal panels
• Ideal for light fabrication and enclosure assembly
• Used with handheld rivet guns for blind riveting tasks
• Can be used for attaching trim or non‑structural components

The aluminium body provides conductive contact between plates while the plastic finish introduces an insulating layer at the outer surface, so continuity depends on whether the finish is interrupted at the bearing face.

The exempt status indicates permitted use of specific substances under RoHS rules, allowing this aluminium/plastic combination where restriction allowances apply.

A rivet‑setting tool compatible with 1/4 inch threaded mandrels and 4mm rivet bodies is required to deform the tail and form a blind head.

A 4mm fastener requires precise hole sizing to control clamp load and minimise slippage in thin materials.
