FAQs

What is the diameter of these rivets?

These rivets have a shank diameter of 6.4mm.

Do I need a special tool to install them?

Yes, you need a rivet gun capable of handling 6.4mm diameter rivets and a countersink bit to prepare the hole.

Can these be used on wood?

While intended for metal, they can be used on wood if the material is rigid enough to support the tension, provided a countersink is used.

Are these rivets weather-resistant?

The silver finish provides basic protection, but for extreme maritime or corrosive environments, check the material specification compatibility.

Can I remove these after installation?

No, these rivets are permanent fasteners. To remove them, you would need to drill out the center of the rivet with a metal drill bit.

Troubleshooting

Rivet head is not sitting flush

Ensure the pilot hole has been countersunk deep enough to accommodate the full depth of the rivet head.

Rivet mandrel does not break off

Check that the rivet gun nose piece is the correct size for a 6.4mm diameter shank and that the tool is held perfectly square to the workpiece.

Joint feels loose after setting

Verify that the combined material thickness is within the rivet's grip range and ensure there is no gap between the panels being joined.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Flush surface finish for a clean look
  • High structural integrity for demanding tasks
  • Corrosion-resistant silver finish
  • Quick and efficient installation process

Cons

  • Requires a heavy-duty rivet tool for 6.4mm size
  • Requires countersinking the hole for a flush result
  • Non-removable once installed

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install these rivets, you must first drill a hole through the workpieces and then use a countersink bit to create a beveled edge that matches the rivet head angle. Ensure your rivet gun is rated for 6.4mm shank diameters; standard light-duty hand tools may not have sufficient power to pop these larger rivets cleanly. To maintain the structural integrity of your assembly, keep the rivets in their original packaging in a dry location to prevent oxidation before use. No specialized maintenance is required for the rivets themselves once installed, as they are designed to be permanent fasteners.
