Rivet Kits
FAQs for "Rivet Kits"
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I replace rivets with screws when replacing my seat rails?
Yes, but there are some restrictions. The screws must be structural screw with a minimum tensile strength of 50ksi. See SAIB CE-90-03R2 for more details.
Can use blind rivets (e.g., CherryMAX or CherryLOCK) when replacing my seat rails?
We do not recommend using blind rivets for seat rail installation.
McFarlane offers either rivets or screws as convenient kits containing AN and MS hardware. Since it is difficult to install many of the rivets required to attach the seat rail, it is permissible to substitute screws with ultimate tensile strength exceeding 50 ksi with lock nuts provided the holes are ream fit and spotfaced. Each kit contains enough rivets or screws to install four seat rails. Installation hardware items are also available separately.
Note: These kits do not contain all required hardware for Cessna model 177 seat rails.
