esantoro Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 I just got off the phone with OTB. I inquired about getting their 350 Jumbo Rivets in solid brass and nickled brass. They're going to get back to me about the possibility of a special order. I thought I'd ask around to see if anyone is interested in these, as a minimum order of 10,000 to 20, 000 will be more than I currently need. Specs: Head diameter: 15/32" (.46874") tube diameter: 3/16" (.1875") tube length: 12/16" I'll also have to ask about solid brass caps.

esantoro Posted September 10, 2008 Author Report Posted September 10, 2008 Just got a response from OTB. They'll do a minimum of 10, 000 for $.18 per rivet. If by chance there is enough interest in these solid brass semi-tubular rivets I can place an order. Weaver has similar rivets but with shorter posts and smaller diameter heads. However, their prices are much better. I just got off the phone with OTB. I inquired about getting their 350 Jumbo Rivets in solid brass and nickled brass.
