Default Equivalent Cherry Rivet

As happens, I missed two rivets on the 802 bulkhead clip and riveted the belly skins. What I need to know is what is the cherry equivalent to an 470 4-8 rivet?

You can check an Aircraft Spruce catalog or the AS website and look under Cherry Max rivets. I forget the exact number (3212 or 3213, I think), but they have a chart that shows what length to get based on the thickness of the parts you are going to rivet together. Hope this helps.
