The Murphy Builders Site

Jean,
They are similar to women. Just because one may look like another you can bet they don't function the same. If you pull a pop rivet by itself

The advantage is that the Avex expands to completely fill that carefully drilled hole and tends to pull the sheets tighter, the pop doesn't Pop

Ralph Baker

Hello Ralf

There is a lot of difference between the "standard" Pop rivets and the
Avex. I just use Avex. But Spanaur (an industrial distributor)
show "standard Pop" but also "multi-grip" Pop rivets. Very simular to Avex
and very different of Standard Pop...

Jean,
They are similar to women. Just because one may look like another you

can bet they don't function the same. If you pull a pop rivet by itself
you will see the mandrel just pulls down inside the barrel, expanding it.
If you pull an Avex you will see the barrel shortens first, expands
slightly and only then does the mandrel pull down inside the barrel. Pull
a mandrel from each and you will see the pop mandrel is like a finishing
nail while the avex has a flat underside (like a mushroom). That is why
the Avex shortens first and the pop doesn't.

The advantage is that the Avex expands to completely fill that carefully

drilled hole and tends to pull the sheets tighter, the pop doesn't Pop
rivets are fine for building Porta Potties (take a look next time) but
please use Avex for airplanes.

Regards,
Ralph Baker

Someone posted to the list in the last week or two the name of the Canadian
company (I seem to recall). Check the archives.

Aircraft Spruce (in Canada and U.S.) stocks them now.
