How the blind rivet works

The blind rivet is a mechanical fastening element consisting of a bushing and a mandrel to be applied through a riveting tool.
By placing the blind rivet into the hole drilled in the detail to be fixed, the riveting machine pulls up the mandrel that makes the bushing expand until complete tightening of the parts to be joined. For over 50 years we have been producing a wide range of products in different materials, sizes, colours and application functionality.
Special rivets manufactured according to drawing are supplied on request.
Products in aluminium, copper, steel and stainless alloys with anodizing and painting surface treatments are available in different packages suitable for every use.

Thank you, I've wondered for ages how rivets work. I watched several other videos but they were mostly how to use the tool and didn't clearly show what magic was happening at the back side. The 10 seconds from 0:42 in this video is gold - just shows exactly how the rear sheath is mushroomed into place. Thanks very much. I'll sleep easier tonight :-)

I liked everything about this video, except for the computerized voice. Can't stand those things. You couldn't find an actual human to narrate a 4:32 video?
