| Subject: | Re: Riveting rudder hinge |
You could use CherryMax expensive, but strong
If you use solids you only need access when you put them in, but then you
can close the rudder skin. Bolts, you will need permanent access. Unless you
put in nutplates.
I bought a rivet gun to shoot solids, and the better I get with it, more I find
I use it.
I made a test fixture with a hydraulic jack, and A5's really tear apart
easily, always before the surrounding material. Solids generally tear
out a hunk of material. I have never failed a solid, always the material
the rivet is in fails first (that is with 6061 sheet)
A5's are strong initially in sheer because of the steel core, but as soon
as the structure deforms, the heads pop right off. Not very impressive
in my opinion.
Regards,
Jeff

Good question, I think they would be OK. I would call ZAC before using SS
though. do not archive

If you are worried about strength why not use A6 rivets. If you use either
bolts or solids you will need access to the inside of the rudder.

If you use bolts you will need to have access plates installed. A better
way if you're worried about the rivets is to use Solids. They are MUCH
stronger than A5's
