Rivet Education

Post by Ljm » Tue Jun 02, 2020 2:51 pm

Are the Murphy rivet numbers like RV 1410, etc manufactures number as well as part number?
I have not been able to find the 1400 series, nor any that start with RV. Is there a cross reference listing ? Where do you buy your rivets in the US?

Sorry if discussed before, I can't get into the archives.

Thanks,

The Aircraft Spruce 1601-1410 rivet has a smaller diameter head. Should do just fine on inside such as floor. 1601-1414 same but longer grip length.

Do a search for avex rivets and then narrow down to head diameter your looking for. Do you have a supplier named Fastenall? The correct rivets can be obtained from Mattic Industries in Vancouver British Columbier. They supply Murphy I'm told.

Rivet prices from Fastenal are quite a bit less than Aircraft Spruce in Canada

Thank you!

Should I have been able to find this out in the plans? This meaning 1601 series is the 1410? I haven't been too successful googleing.. :( I did find this site https://www.rivetsonline.com/documents/ ... igrips.pdf which has different numbers.

Thanks again!

Lawson Products bought Mattic, so you'll end up talking with them.

From the manufacturer's web site:

http://www.avdel-global.com/fileadmin/u ... 2_2015.pdf

Page 77 presents the 1661 series.
