snufkin2,

Specify a flat head rivet!

Do you need to be flush on both sides?

Sorry, i wrote my previous msg. very late ... i ment i want it flush on the riveting side
head side is flush of course because im asking about flat-head rivets (MS20426 - which defines flat head 100deg solid rivets)

i tried to look for some tables on rivet mfr. sites but couldnt find what i need...
