Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To install these rivets, you will need a standard rivet gun compatible with 3.2mm (1/8 inch) rivet diameters. Insert the rivet into the appropriate hole in the materials you wish to join. Place the rivet gun nosepiece over the rivet mandrel and squeeze the handles firmly and consistently. Continue until the mandrel breaks off, securing the joint.
Compatibility: These rivets are designed for use with materials such as metal sheets, plastics, and wood. They are compatible with standard 3.2mm (1/8 inch) rivet guns. Ensure the materials being joined have pre-drilled holes of an appropriate size (typically slightly larger than the rivet body) for a secure fit.
Care: As these rivets are made from A2 stainless steel, they are inherently resistant to corrosion. For maximum longevity, especially in harsh environments, periodic inspection for any signs of damage or wear is recommended. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface. A simple wipe-down with a damp cloth is usually sufficient for cleaning.
