rktaylor Report post Posted December 26, 2017 I have searched the internet for rivets like this to no avail. Maybe my search terms are incorrect. Does anyone know where I can purchase these? I haven't worked on purses, but have been asked to shorten this strap. That means removing this rivet. Any advice is appreciated. Randy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TSes Report post Posted December 26, 2017 Tandy sells them as "domed rivets". 2 sizes- 7mm and 10mm. They sell setters for them also. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredk Report post Posted December 26, 2017 Are they rapid rivets or screw-backs? On ebay; one example, 8mm dia screw-backs; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/8mm-12mm-20mm-Dome-Rivet-Screw-DIY-Leathercraft-Punk-Spots-Hat-Shoe-Bag-Decor/142242086124?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=441307270496&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 rapid rivets; https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/6mm-8mm-10mm-12mm-15mm-Round-Double-Mushroom-Cap-Rapid-Stud-Rivet-Leather-DIY/282401196506?hash=item41c06c49da:m:m-SVdK7eXKjmFdtPrJMRNOA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJole Report post Posted December 26, 2017 That doesn't look like a domed (i.e. half dome) rivet. There seems to be 3/4 of a circle there, almost like the top of a stud. It seems to be in the middle of a rectangular plate of some sort, which is raised up. That also says, to me, that it is not a domed rivet. Maybe a query to Ohio Travel Bag?

rktaylor Report post Posted December 28, 2017 The domed rivets from Tandy look just like this. I haven't measured these, but I will tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rktaylor Report post Posted December 29, 2017 The ones on this purse are double capped. I haven't made it to Tandy to look at replacements. Randy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
