Stocked from 5.0 to 10.0 (nominal diameter). ### Industries that specify Plastic Push Rivets - **Automotive trim:** Bumpers, arch liners, undertrays and splash guards. - **Appliance & enclosure panels:** Covers removed for service and refitted. - **Signage & display:** Non-marking fixings on painted panels. - **Transport & bodywork:** Trailer, bus and van panels joined blind from one side. - **Signage & cladding:** Fast, vibration-resistant fixing of thin material. - **Consumer goods & toys:** Riveted pivots and permanent light assemblies. ### Typical applications - no corrosion and no marking of a painted panel - holding trim and liners that are removed for service - permanent joints in thin sheet where a threaded fastener would loosen - blind fixing where only one side can be reached - riveted pivots that must stay tight but still turn ### Service conditions to specify against - **Marine and coastal:** Available in A4 (316) stainless for chloride exposure — coastal structures, pool halls, water treatment and deck hardware, where A2 will eventually pit. - **Temperature ceiling:** The polymer feature sets the limit, not the steel: nylon softens above roughly 120 °C, so an all-metal locking type is the correct choice on hot assemblies. ### Where to use something else - Panel retention only — not a structural fastener. - Not for a joint that has to come apart in service — removal means drilling the rivet out.

As rivets, they are specified by the dimensions in the table below; this page also covers materials, finishes and typical uses. ## What Are Plastic Push Rivets (Trim Clips)? Plastic Push Rivets (Trim Clips) are rivets defined by Trade series (nylon push rivet). They are selected by nominal diameter and the dimensional characteristics shown below, and are available in a range of materials and finishes to suit the application and environment. ## Materials & Finishes Common materials include carbon steel (typically zinc plated or hot-dip galvanized), hardened or case-hardened steel where wear matters, and stainless steel A2 (304) or A4 (316) for corrosion resistance. Specify the material, hardness where relevant, and the surface finish appropriate to your application and environment. ## Specification Guides Each size, material and standard of Plastic Push Rivets (Trim Clips) has its own reference page with the figures for that one configuration. ## Goes With Hardware commonly specified alongside Plastic Push Rivets (Trim Clips). ## Pricing Plastic Push Rivets (Trim Clips) are supplied to order. Pricing starts from approximately US$0.020 per piece for standard sizes in carbon steel; final pricing depends on size, material, finish and order quantity (MOQ applies). Submit your exact configuration with the quote form above. Custom manufacturing · Made to drawing ## Need a plastic push rivets (trim clips) outside the standard range? Body diameter, grip range, head form and body/mandrel material combination can all be specified against the joint rather than chosen from a table. Made by cold heading or drawing. Minimum order from 2,000 pieces; samples within 7 days of drawing approval. [Custom rivet manufacturing](https://engineeringhardware.com/custom/rivets/)[Send a drawing](https://engineeringhardware.com/custom/rivets/#rfq) Inside the plant ## Manufactured in our own plant This part is cold-formed, threaded, heat-treated and finished in-house. The stages below are where its class and finish are actually decided. 1. ![Wire rod feeding into a cold heading machine](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/09-wire-rod-feed-cold-heading-machine.webp) 01 **Cold heading** Wire rod is drawn to size and cold-formed into blanks. Forming rather than cutting keeps the grain flow continuous around the head, which is where a bolt is most likely to fail. Head dimensions and under-head radius checked at set-up and per shift. 2. ![Thread rolling machine producing bolt threads](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/03-thread-rolling-machine-bolt-production.webp) 02 **Thread rolling** Threads are rolled between hardened dies rather than cut. Rolled threads are stronger in fatigue than cut threads and hold pitch and flank angle far more consistently across a batch. Go / no-go ring gauges to ISO 965 tolerance class 6g. 3. ![Baskets of bolts staged for heat treatment](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/05-heat-treatment-baskets-black-bolts.webp) 03 **Heat treatment** Quench-and-temper brings carbon and alloy steel to the property class ordered — 8.8, 10.9 or 12.9 — with the furnace charge tracked so a finished lot can be traced back to it. Core hardness and tensile tested per lot to ISO 898-1. 4. ![Zinc plated bolts in a treatment basket](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/23-zinc-plated-bolts-treatment-basket.webp) 04 **Surface treatment** Zinc, zinc-nickel, hot-dip galvanizing, black oxide, phosphate and Dacromet, selected against the service environment rather than against the price list. Coating thickness and neutral salt spray hours to ISO 9227. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is the controlling standard for Plastic Push Rivets (Trim Clips)?
