Marine Trifold Rivets

Tri-fold rivets designed for use on plastic kayaks

 The rivet shaft of Marine Trifold Rivets splays into 3 parts that open out when compressed to provide a strong hold against plastic kayak hulls. Standard pop-rivets would pull through plastic under pressure.

They are ideal for situations where there is insufficient access for using bolts, washers and nuts. They are a good choice for fitting fixtures such as pad eyes, cleats and d-rings. These rivets will fit a pad eye fitting (5.0mm thick) to hulls up to 7.0mm in thickness.

You will need a pop-rivet gun for use (available for a low cost at most hardware stores). We recommend the use of a sealant such as Sikaflex EBT when fixing any accessory to a kayak to provide a waterproof fitting. You will need to drill a 5mm / 3/16" hole for installation.
