HOW THE BULB-TITE WORKS: During installation the rivet body folds into three separate legs, forming the blind-side upset head. The Bulb-tite mandrel breaks off *flush with the rivet head. *Flush mandrel break requires use of special Bulb-tite installation tool nose tip.WEATHER TIGHT: A special nose tip on the rivet installation tool crimps a crown feature on the rivet head. This crown-crimp effectively seals the rivet bore off from intrusion of dirt and moisture. Adding the optional washer to the Bulb-tite, creates an additional seal around the perimeter of the rivet head, to stop moisture from intruding beneath the rivet head. HIGH STRENGTH: Another benefit of the Bulb-tite rivetís retained mandrel core is the added strength it provides. Bulb-tite rivets are less prone to failure in high shear loads. HIGH CLAMPING: The large three-legged upset head evenly distributes the Bulb-tite rivetís high clamp load over a broader bearing surface than do conventional blind rivets. This enables soft, thin, ductile and even brittle materials to be securely clamped without deformation, cracking or other damage to the application. CHOICE OF FINISHED APPEARANCE: Bulb-tite rivets are offered in a variety of head styles. Standard Dome, Low Profile, Large Flange and Countersunk head styles are available. Color matched plastic finish caps can be snapped onto certain Bulb-tite head styles to conceal installed rivet heads. The unique Shaveable Head Bulb-tite was specifically designed for use in heavy truck and trailer applications where solid rivets are used. They are ideal for repair of solid riveted assemblies where access to the applicationís blind side may be no longer accessible. The Shaveable Bulb-tite rivet head is finished using a special head-shaving tool. Shaved Bulb-tite rivet heads then match the appearance of solid rivets in the assembly. MATERIAL CHOICES: The standard Bulb-tite rivets are made of aluminum alloy, providing a durable non-rusting fastener that can withstand weather-related corrosion. Some Bulb-tite sizes are also available in steel and monel materials where higher strength is required
