Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these rivets, you will need a standard pop-rivet gun compatible with 4.0mm diameter rivets.
- Preparation: Drill a hole slightly larger than 4.0mm in both pieces of material to be joined.
- Alignment: Ensure the materials are clamped tightly together to prevent gaps.
- Insertion: Insert the rivet through the hole until the flange is flush against the surface.
- Actuation: Engage your rivet gun onto the steel mandrel and operate the trigger until the mandrel snaps off.
For care and maintenance, keep the rivets in a dry environment to prevent any potential surface oxidation of the steel components prior to installation. Once installed, these rivets require no further maintenance.
