Default Blind Rivet?

Forgot to install the AN470AD4-6 rivets on the F705 bulkhead assembly. The one that is under the Bar Doubler (F605C) that goes through the Center section bar (F705B) and rear spar (F705A). Will a blind rivet work here; if so which one?

Thanks

Hi John,

In general you can substitute an appropriate CherryMax rivet for a solid rivet in the vast majority of cases. Check out a CR3213 at Spruce. You'll find a table there that will help you pick the appropriate part number given the material thickness in that area. The part number should be something like CR3213-4-X, where the X is a number chosen from the grip range chart.

Take care.

Default cherry Max

Send me a PM if you need help with selection/ect. I am near Winston-Salem, and I have a bunch of these in my shop, as well as pullers/info on installation.
