Default Replacement part for backrivet set

I need a replacement part for my backrivet set...the little rolled pin broke off on one side. I don't want to drive all over town trying to figure out if HD or OSH or whomever has these things (and if I ask the "sales clerks" there if they have rolled pins, I'm pretty sure I'll get the usual response..."rolled pins?").

Anybody know if any of the usual suspects carry these things? HD, OSH, Lowe's, etc.? Or if not, one of the on-line places? I need 1/8"x3/4".

TIA!

I've seen them at Ace Hardware so I wouldn't be surprised if Lowe's and HD didn't carry them as well. Also, the auto parts stores such as NAPA, AutoZone and O'Reilly's should have them.

I've bought roll pins at Home Depot and Lowes before. They're usually in the hardware section in the bins of "hard to find" parts.

Yep HD or Lowes has them in the hardware area. Little sliding drawers with all kinds of weird stuff in them.
