pella Report post Posted February 25, 2007 steel is stronger than brass rivet BUT it rust and rust EAT leather. I use Jiffy, dont know if stronger than other. Tubular rivet with a cap is stronger than jiffy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tubular rivet with a cap is stronger than jiffy. I like the tubular rivets with caps too. Which ones do you recommend? I'm using OTB 310, 252, 275, but am having a difficult time with the caps. I will be experimenting with the force fit caps for these rivets, but I'm skeptical about the holding power. Ed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
