This Banana Peel Back Rivet is a real time saver for many repair jobs and only requires one person. Unlike standard pop rivets, these 'blind' rivets do not require a backup washer. 1.) Works in over-sized, oblong and worn out holes up to 1/4″ 2.) Tight clamp-up and holding power, from 1/8″ to 9/16″ with stronger clamping power. 3.) NO back-up washer needed. The banana type peeling action will clamp without needing a back up washer. 4.) These rivets will work with any functioning blind rivet setting tool. 5.) The unique peeling action pulls multiple layers of application together from the extreme back end of the rivet. Unlike other “exploding” rivets which only pull from the middle of the rivets length and often don’t clamp multiple sheets tight. These banana peel back exploding rivets are often used in applications where the holes have either become oval or just too big for standard 3/16″ diameter rivets. When the tool pulls the mandrel or nail, the head of the nail begins spliting, then pedaling back the rivet body just like you would commonly peel a banana. While the four pedals peel, they spread out and pull down the backside materials to form a tight, pulled together application that won’t come loose too easily due to the stronger pulling power of this rivet’s nail. Good selection for fastening fiberglass, sheet metal and many other materials. Our Banana Peel Back Rivets have four legs that peel back to provide a far superior hold, unlike most split rivets that have only two legs.

Hard to find
I needed these for a pop up camper and they worked great and was easy to use. I couldn’t find them local and was grateful to find these!

So strong, handheld riveters cannot break these
I was concerned that with these being aluminum they would not have the holding strength I needed to attach a sideview mirror back onto a 45-old car with stripped door holes. That concern evaporated as soon as I did a test run. These things hold TIGHT. I bet they hold tight enough to dent the door panel from the inside if I don't use a washer.One thing to note is that if you're using a handheld riveter, you may not be able to break the mandrel. I'm not even sure if these are supposed to break but either way it's not a big deal in my case because unlike a standard rivet, the mandrel doesn't stick around. Once the "peels" have been pulled and everything is tight I can clip the mandrel and the backside falls off. If you have clearance in the back (I didn't) you could simply let the whole rod fall out the back. Overall I'm really impressed and so far the strength of these has exceeding my expectations.

Work as they advertise
Used these to repair my RV awning arm which had pulled away from the wall. They installed properly and easy as other Pop Rivets. The hole was oversize due to removal of previous rivets and these rivets worked great to snug things back together. Time will tell how they hold up on a traveling RV. For now, I am very pleased. BTW These are open end rivets (hole in head) so sealant was a must for my application.

Very nice quality
Purchased to adhere a metal latch to fiberglass that I didn’t have access to on the backside and I ended up with a strong bond.

Just what I needed.
Previous repair to Ford Ranger door lock cables left large holes in door frame (.283"). I wanted to use this 3/16" rivet instead of a 1/4" so I added a #10 back up washer to blind side of door frame. Worked perfectly!

Weak! Break easily!
Was expecting more from these expanding rivets!I guess these are very light duty only.Had a few of the expanded backs break off when tightening up, then had others break off after a short time of use. Just had two panels riveted together (plastic and metal).
