Installation
Prepare aligned 6.5mm holes and remove burrs. Insert the rivet fully through the joint with the head seated against the surface. Set using a rivet tool rated for 6.4mm steel/steel rivets and fitted with the correct nosepiece.
Hold the tool square to the joint and complete the setting cycle until the mandrel breaks. Check that the rivet has formed correctly and clamps the materials securely.
