Brief Description:  Practice 3/16" Solid Riveting (cont.)

Continuation of previous log entry.

Fig. 1 shows that the AN470AD-6-16 rivets from Spruce are ~1/16" too long. Fig. 2 shows that the shop head heights is greater than the min value. Fig. 3 shows that the shop head meets the minimum diameter spec. It cannot be seen from the photo, but the Avery gage cannot fit completely over the shop head, so the diameter is slightly greater than the minimum spec.

My conclusion:

I will use the AN470AD-16 rivets from ACS to rivet the extruded angle to the spar caps.
