Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use these on very thin fabrics?

These are designed for thicker materials. On very thin fabrics, the 9mm stem might be too long, causing the rivet to feel loose.

Do I need a special tool to set them?

Yes, you will need a 10mm concave rivet setter and a matching anvil base to avoid flattening the domed shape.

Are these rivets rust-resistant?

These are made for general indoor and moderate outdoor use; however, they should be kept dry to prevent potential oxidation over time.

Can these be removed after being set?

Because they are permanent fasteners, removing them usually requires cutting the rivet or drilling it out, which may damage your material.

What is the total length of the rivet?

The stem length is 9mm, which is the functional length available for gripping your material layers.

Troubleshooting

The cap won't stay attached to the stem

Ensure you have fully pressed the cap onto the stem before striking. If the material is too thick, the stem will not reach the cap securely.

The cap finish is scratched or dented

Ensure your setter tool matches the 10mm curvature of the rivet head. Use a wooden or rubber mallet instead of a metal hammer.

The rivet spins after installation

This occurs when the rivet is not compressed tightly enough. Use a slightly smaller hole diameter in your material next time.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a clean, finished appearance on both sides of the material
  • High-quality, durable metal construction ensures long-lasting joints
  • Perfect for a wide variety of materials including thick leather and denim
  • Generous 100-piece quantity provides ample supply for multiple projects
  • Easy to install with a standard rivet setter and anvil

Cons

  • Requires a separate rivet setting tool not included in the package
  • Specific stem length of 9mm may be too long for very thin fabrics
  • Requires a firm, steady strike to avoid deforming the dome cap
  • Permanent installation makes them difficult to remove without damage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install these rivets, you will need a matching 10mm rivet setter and a concave anvil. Follow these steps for best results:

  1. Prepare the Hole: Punch a hole in your material slightly larger than the stem diameter (approx. 2.5mm to 3mm).
  2. Insert the Rivet: Push the rivet stem through the hole from the back of the material.
  3. Cap the Rivet: Place the top cap onto the stem.
  4. Secure: Place the assembly on your anvil. Use your setter tool and a mallet to tap the cap firmly onto the stem. A few sharp, straight strikes are better than many light, uneven ones.

Care Instructions: While the silver finish is durable, avoid using harsh chemicals or industrial degreasers. Clean with a soft, dry cloth to maintain the shine. If used on outdoor gear, periodically check that the rivet remains tight as natural material shrinkage can occur.
