Notes on Good Riveting -- Tips

Tips:

Before beginning a new phase, try rigging a test piece or a component mock up.  Cardboard mock ups will conserve material and will help to obtain correct sizes and shapes.

Setting the first rivets of the day should be done on a test piece to ensure proper air pressure; tool adjustment; and operator currency.

Place masking tape on rivet sets to stabilise them while riveting. (renew frequently)

A rubber grommet placed over the rivet tail will compress components together ensuring a close joint as riveting progresses. Use where clamps or clecoes are impractical.
