The rivets I ordered were for an under-sink sink A fifteen-year-old pickup truck that I was restoring for an auto body shop A vehicle that is more than a year old. Usually, I use aluminum in outdoor applications, but I wanted the extra corrosion resistance for the environment in which the rivets would be used (I live in the The winters are harsh here in OH, near Cleveland, and we have some very harsh winters with some very harsh conditions, including massive salting of roads). This vehicle was recently repaired by me, and I have completed the work. A big-box store in my area had good pricing, so I checked it out Before placing an order with Amazon, contact box hardware suppliers. No stainless rivets could be found in the Blue store. In the Orange store, they were available, but at an outrageous price. Each of them cost 76 cents. A few weeks ago, I was paying about $ on Amazon. There is a charge of 10 for each of these There is a huge price difference! I only faced one issue with these blind rivets. They were incredibly hard to complete the process of pulling the rivets and snapping the shaft (these were just 1/8 inches thick). It might be just that I am getting used to aluminum (or possibly I am getting older and weaker since the last time I used Regardless, these rivets did the job for me, and I am optimistic that there will be no further corrosion under that vehicle where these rivets were installed. In addition to delivery being prompt, service was great even though I didn't have Amazon Prime. I would consider going this route again if I had to.
Although the rivets turned out to be a bit too large for my purpose, connecting snaps together, they appear to be of I was surprised by how thick they are. They have a very solid feel to them as well. When I find a project that calls for them, I am confident that they will be of excellent holding power. To pop these rivets, you need quite a substantial tool. I am using this tool, which is as small as I would consider for a rivet of this size. To pop these rivets, you have to work a bit. *BR> The rivets are six As a bonus, I bought some 6-packs as well At the same time, two exhibits from Rivet Gallery are on view. They should appear more substantial as a result. There is a little more pull, so fewer false pops might occur. If I begin using more of them, I will update this post.
Rockers on a Jeep needed to be repaired, the tool I had made it a bit difficult to pop them, but it still worked well. The rocker should remain solid for a few years, and these look pretty sturdy. As a side note, do not use aluminum rivets on steel or.
Make sure you get the larger tool where you use both arms to pull the rivet if you are planning on manually setting these rivets. The smaller hand riveter will result in your forearms looking like Popeye's (not a bad thing if you're a guy), but your flimsy hand riveter will break eventually. These larger, stronger stainless steel pop rivets were not made for hand riveters, since they were really made for aluminum pop rivets. The engineering data shows that these rivets have a shear strength of 950 lbs, which is twice the strength of a typical aluminum pop rivet of the same size. If you need that extra strength, these are the ones you should use.
I tried with both types of chrome, but I couldn't get them to work I am heavy-set After the rivet gun was pressed, I was unable to cut the remainder of the rivet easily. Even after I finally got the rivet gun all the way depressed, it still didn't work completely. So I just snapped the rivet gun up with some pliers and went on. Make sure that you are using the right tool for the job.
I had used them to repair my window. Buildings with high rises are required to have this. The pneumatic riverter is needed to get them in since they are very tough. There is no need to worry about them coroding or snapping. You're doing a great job.
The product has grown on me so far, and I haven't had any problems with it. All of the workers have done their jobs as expected. You will need to work out if you plan on doing these with a large hand riveter. Getting them to set takes a lot of strength, after you have set 10 or so you will feel it.
I like these rivets because they look great and work well. These were used to attach the backing plates on an air intake to a motorcycle (the metal total thickness was 1/4"). Considering I had little space available to work, I used a pneumatic riveter. Despite the uneven and straight alignment of the rivet ball, the clamping was uniform.
