FAQs
What vehicles are these drive rivets compatible with?
These rivets are designed as direct replacements for Volvo OE 12681763 and Mercedes-Benz OE A0009904529, making them suitable for models like the Volvo 740 and 760, and various Mercedes-Benz vehicles. They are also suitable for general automotive use where a 6mm plastic rivet is needed.
What are the exact dimensions of these rivets?
The rivets have a head diameter of 16mm, a total length of 14mm, and require a hole size of 6mm for installation.
What material are the rivets made from?
They are manufactured from durable nylon, which provides good strength and resistance to corrosion.
How many rivets are included in a pack?
Each pack contains 10 drive rivets, supplied in a blister clam pack for easy storage and access.
Can these rivets be used for exterior trim?
Yes, they can be used for exterior trim applications like bumpers or fender liners, provided the material is suitable for the specific application and environmental conditions.
How do I install these rivets?
Insert the rivet into the pre-drilled 6mm hole and push the drive pin in firmly to expand the rivet, securing the panels.
How do I remove these rivets if needed?
Use a trim removal tool to carefully lift the center pin, then pull the rivet out. Be gentle to avoid damaging the surrounding material.
Troubleshooting
Rivet does not hold securely.
Ensure the hole size is exactly 6mm. If the hole is too large, the rivet may not grip properly. Check that the drive pin has been fully inserted to expand the rivet body.
Rivet is difficult to insert.
Verify the hole is clean and free of debris. The hole should be the specified 6mm. Slight lubrication with a silicone-based spray may assist insertion, but avoid petroleum-based lubricants which can degrade nylon.
Rivet breaks during installation.
Do not force the rivet. Ensure the hole is the correct size and that the panels align properly. Excessive force can fracture the nylon. Use a replacement rivet and ensure proper alignment before insertion.
Rivet is hard to remove.
Use a suitable trim removal tool to gently pry up the center pin. If the pin is stuck, carefully use pliers to pull it upwards. Avoid damaging the surrounding trim panel.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable nylon material ensures long-lasting performance.
- Designed as an exact replacement for specific Volvo and Mercedes-Benz parts.
- Precise dimensions guarantee a secure fit in pre-drilled holes.
- Convenient 10-pack blister clam packaging.
- Versatile for general automotive trim applications beyond specified models.
Cons
- Limited to plastic applications; not suitable for metal or heavy-duty fastening.
- Specific hole size requirement (6mm) means it may not fit all existing holes.
- Material may degrade under extreme temperatures or harsh chemical exposure.
- Only 10 rivets per pack, which might be insufficient for large-scale jobs.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To use the Connect drive rivets, ensure the existing hole is clean and measures 6mm in diameter. Insert the rivet body into the hole, then push the drive pin firmly to expand the rivet and secure the attached panels. For removal, a trim removal tool or a small screwdriver can be used to carefully pry up the center pin, allowing the rivet to be extracted.
Compatibility: These rivets are primarily designed as replacements for Volvo OE number 12681763 and Mercedes-Benz OE number A0009904529. They are suitable for Volvo 740, 760, and Mercedes-Benz vehicles, as well as general automotive applications requiring a 6mm hole fitting. Always verify the OE number and dimensions against your vehicle's requirements before purchase.
Care: Store the rivets in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain the integrity of the nylon material. Avoid exposing the installed rivets to harsh chemicals or solvents.
