Benefits of Closed End Rivets Closed End Pop Rivets are often referred to as sealed blind rivets, or sealing rivets because they create a watertight seal when installed properly, making them a popular item in the boating and automotive industries. Closed end pop rivets also provide a complete mandrel retention which gives the sealed rivet a higher tensile strength and can be important in electronic and electrical applications. Domed Head Like a standard pop rivet, closed end rivets leave behind a smooth domed head. During installation, the mandrel snaps off as it is pulled through the body of the rivet on the blind side of the application.
