RIVET SELECTION CHART
For use with Flexco
®
Rivet Hinged Fasteners and Rapid Loader
™
Collated Rivets
* Applies to RAR6LP only
** Use with 3/4" (19mm) diameter hinge pin
NOTE:
• When installing Flexco Rivet Hinged fasteners with the Flexco Power Set
™
Rivet Driver, you must use Rapid Loader
™
Collated Rivets
with washers
.
• In areas of overlap, to select the proper rivet choose the shorter rivet for softer, compressible belts and the longer
rivet for hard belts.
Skiving Recommended:
Whenever possible, Flexco recommends skiving the belt in order to countersink mechanical fasteners. Skiving reduces the
fastener profile on the belt, resulting in improved fastener/cleaner compatibility and increased fastener service life. To determine
proper rivet selection, always measure the belt thickness after a portion of the belt cover has been removed. This may allow
for the selection of a one to two size shorter rivet for increased material savings while maintaining maximum holding ability.
In some cases, where belt-operating tension allows for it, a smaller fastener can be applied.
