A soft rivet has no dimple. It can be used for nut plates, fiberglass and other non structual items.lostpilot28 said:I was going to ask the same question, but haven't gotten around to it. I have a couple sets of rivets that are silver and I have been afraid to use them because I thought they may be softer.
Can anyone provide instruction on how to identify if a rivet is soft?
