If you are searching for a quality, a material combination or a measurement which is not listed in the catalogue, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Alternatively we got the possiblity to develop a blind rivet type especially for your application. For Example:
- softer breaking point 1
- displaced breaking point 2
- grooved mandrel 3
- longer mandrel 4
etc.

TESTS ACCORDING ISO 14589
This inspection ISO 14589 includes the following points.
Principle of shear and tensile tests
The tests consist of straining a blind rivet which is set in a test fixture by a shear load or tensile load to failure.
Principle of mandrel push out restistance test (prior to setting)
The test consists of loading the mandrel axially from the head side of a blind rivet untill it is pushed out.
Principle of the mandrel break load test
The test consists of straining the mandrel removed from the rivet body in a test fixture by a tensile load to fracture.
Principle of head retention capability test
The test consists of loading the mandrel axially, from the head side of a set blind rivet up to the head retention load. All details in Newton, 1kp = 9,80665 N (10N). For every delivered batch GOEBEL is able to handout the inspection report. With this procedure it is guaranteed that only tested items will be delivered for a customers safe treatment.
