Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard blind rivet tool sized for 1/4-inch body diameter rivets. Confirm the pilot hole diameter falls within the specified range of 0.257 to 0.261 inches before setting the rivet. Ensure all material layers are clamped flush before driving the mandrel to achieve full grip and rated strength. Discard spent mandrels and inspect the set rivet head for full dome formation before completing the joint.
