About Installing Solid Rivets

Mil. Spec. Aluminum Flush-Mount Solid Rivets
Made of heat-treated aluminum, these rivets meet MIL-C-5541. They are lightweight, nonmagnetic, and chemically treated for good corrosion resistance, leaving a gold-colored finish. Install in a countersunk hole and the angled head sits flush with the material's surface.
Installation of solid rivets requires access to both sides of the material as well as a hammer or a solid rivet tool. To achieve the most consistent results and a professional appearance, we recommend using a riveting air hammer with a rivet setter that matches the rivet's head style, and a bucking bar.
