longer rapid rivets

Recommended Posts

I use Tandy's double cap rapid rivets to pound my helmets together. I'm gradually using thicker leather, and I'm finding that their large rivets, at 1/2 inch, are sometimes not long enough. Are there any other rapid rivets out there that are longer?

Never mind...found longer rivets at Weaver's. Too bad their minimum order is 1,000...and the caps are sold separately. As we say in Minnesota...ufda!

Those are tubular rivets that take the caps, but you can also roll them over.

I'm in the process of special ordering some 12/16" tubular rivets with 7/16" head. I may have to buy 5000 of each finish, solid brass and nickled brass. If anyone needs these lengths, let me know and you can have them at cost.
