During the setting process, edges on the mandrel head cut the rivet shaft into four segments. These four segments then unfold on the component surface thus forming the large locking head. Once the mandrel reaches its predetermined breakload, the mandrel head falls out of the rivet body. The large locking head allows connecting soft or britt le components and helps transfer high tensile forces.ARCO body-bound blind rivets are preferably used for plastic or wood element assembly, caravan manufacturing and fastening of cladings.

The OPTO multigrip blind rivet with his especially embossed rivet shaft, is distinctly different to a standard blind rivet. Due to his constructive structural, the rivet guarantees lots of excellent performance characteristics: — large grip range — good filling capacity of the borehole — non-positive locking of the captive mandrel without clearance — no rattling sounds — dustproof and splash water-tight Preferred applications for OPTO multigrip blind rivets can be found in the field of vehicle manufacturing, in air conditioning technology as well as in the production of tanks and cntainers. Furthermore, this rivet type is excellently suited for use as a repair rivet. Honsel develops for this blind rivet type special variants for the serial producti on, too, e. g. large grip range low grip range with a diameter up to 8,0 mm!
