A bit of follow-up on my list question earlier this week about oversized
rivets. But first, a little background;
I "ovaled" two holes that were meant for A5's. they are in the wing bottom,
leading edge skin and inaccessible for a backing plate or nut and bolt. I
ended up ordering 5 different Avex styles and grip lengths from Aircraft
Spruce.
My experience is that "Avex non-strt, blind rivets dome, part number
1601-0613" is a perfect fit for an oversized A5 hole. I just pulled two of
them and they don't look as terrible as I first imagined. after pulling
them, I did dress them a little with a 3M wheel on an air cut-off tool.
$0.06 each or $5.40/100.
Hope this $0.02 helps out someone....
