Re: Rivet Nuts and Rivet Studs

I started using them many years ago. I needed to add hardware to a leaky (RF) transmitter to get the second harmonic down. (A Hot Water 101 for those of you who remember back that far.) The nurling that is formed when the hand tool is used proved to be perfect for making contact between the covers and the chassis. The real trick, just like PEMs is to use the right size drill bit. As I remember, McMaster has both aluminum and steel.
