1GENERAL1.1 Scope
1.1.1 This Standard covers complete general anddimensional data for semi-tubular rivets, full tubularrivets, split rivets, and rivet caps for use in general pur-pose applications.The products described are suitablefor joining metallic and nonmetallic materials or combi-nations thereof. It should be noted that while these prod-ucts are suitable for general purpose assembly,otherspecial purpose types are available to satisfy particularrequirements and manufacturers should be consultedfor special requirements.
1.1.2 The inclusion of dimensional data in thisStandard is not intended to imply that all of the productsdescribed are stock production sizes.Consumers arerequested to consult with suppliers concerning availabil-ity of products.
