This detailed product description presents the C5 type mandrel, manufactured for the professional riveting technology of Wieländer+Schill, specifically designed for Flow Form Rivets (FFR). This component is part of the high-quality XSeries professional riveting technology range, ensuring precise and reliable fastening solutions in the automotive body repair industry.
The C5 mandrel (part number: 700276) is a critical component for the professional installation of Flow Form Rivets (FFR). FFR rivets feature a special design that provides superior joint strength and material joining quality compared to traditional riveting methods, especially for modern high-strength steel and aluminum structures.
This tool ensures that the rivet head is optimally deformed during the installation process, thereby creating a factory-quality, durable, and load-bearing joint. Precision machining guarantees compatibility with the appropriate riveting machines and the Flow Form technology.
Special Compatibility: Optimized exclusively for 8.0 mm diameter Flow Form Rivets (FFR).
Precise Design: The geometry of the tool ensures a controlled and uniform deformation of the rivet head to achieve maximum joint force.
Durability: Made from high-quality materials that withstand high mechanical stress and frequent use in workshop environments.
System Integration: Designed for the Wieländer+Schill XSeries technology, guaranteeing seamless integration with existing tool sets.
Quality Assurance: The product is manufactured according to the strict quality standards of Wieländer+Schill, which guarantees a long service life and reliable performance.
The technical characteristics of the C5 mandrel ensure precise fit and efficient operation.

Flow Form Rivet (FFR) technology is crucial in the repair of modern vehicle bodies, especially where traditional spot welding is not applicable, or where a high-strength joint is required to maintain structural integrity. During the installation of FFR rivets, the tool (in this case, the C5) applies specific pressure to the rivet body, resulting in the controlled flow of the rivet material within the hole. This process creates an extremely strong, leak-proof, and vibration-resistant joint that often surpasses the strength of welded seams in certain material combinations.
The C5 mandrel is a key element in this process, as the precise design of the setting face determines how the rivet material behaves under pressure. Dimensions calibrated for 8.0 mm FFR rivets ensure the tool fits perfectly onto the rivet head, minimizing the risk of damage and maximizing the quality of the joint.
Wieländer+Schill is committed to the highest quality, reflected in the rigorous processes applied during tool manufacturing. The product complies with international quality guidelines, including ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) certifications. This quality assurance background guarantees that the mandrel with part number 700276 will reliably meet professional expectations over the long term.
This tool is the ideal choice for any professional using the most modern body repair technologies, and it is essential for executing durable and safe fastening solutions that comply with factory specifications.
