Sm Hd Rivet 250pk Orange Flange Type Discontinued

The Sm Hd Rivet 250pk Orange Flange Type from ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE is a bulk fastening solution designed for automotive assembly, panel work, and structural repairs where blind rivets provide permanent, vibration-resistant joints. This 250-pack offering makes it an economical choice for fabricators, restoration shops, and serious DIY builders who regularly assemble sheet metal components, custom brackets, or body panels without access to a welding station. Orange flange rivets are engineered to distribute clamping force across a wider surface area than standard dome-head rivets, reducing the risk of material tear-through on thinner gauges or softer substrates commonly found in automotive applications.

Small head (Sm Hd) rivets provide a lower-profile fastening option ideal for applications where a minimal surface protrusion matters—such as hood hinges, door hinge repairs, or interior trim panels where clearance is limited or aesthetic finish is important. The flange design creates a larger bearing surface under the rivet head compared to standard countersunk types, maintaining joint integrity under thermal cycling and engine vibration while avoiding the stress concentration of flush-mount alternatives. ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE's engineering ensures consistent mandrel pull and secure upset formation, meaning each rivet in the 250-pack meets the same strict quality standards demanded by professional race shops and OEM-spec restoration work.

This bulk pack is most valuable for technicians undertaking frame-off restorations, custom fabrication projects, or high-volume assembly work where downtime to reorder is unacceptable. Compatibility spans any hand rivet tool or pneumatic riveter rated for small-diameter fasteners, and the orange flange configuration works across mild steel, aluminum, and composite panel combinations typical in classic car restoration and modern custom builds. Installation requires only a matched rivet gun set and proper hole sizing—ensuring repeatable results across panel seams, mounting brackets, and structural joints without the heat distortion risk of welding or the loose connection potential of mechanical fasteners.
