rjp 29 Posted December 3, 2017 Does any one have a good place to buy #9 x 11/32 tubular rivets for the brake lining on a 29 franklin? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scott12180 35 Posted December 4, 2017 I haven’t looked up your rivets specifically but McMaster Carr has just about everything you could want. Their online catalog and mail order service is the worlds largest hardware store. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f147pu 18 Posted December 4, 2017 You really should have this done professionally. They do excellent work, quickly and very reasonable price. I can't remember the name but it has been in other posts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JFranklin 457 Posted December 4, 2017 If you have the tools you can do it fairly easily. A brake shop can do the job for a reasonable price also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjp 29 Posted December 4, 2017 Thanks I do have the rivet machine and counter sinker, just no rivets Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akstraw 178 Posted December 4, 2017 You might try Big Flats Rivet in Big Flats, NY. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjp 29 Posted December 5, 2017 Ok thanks Ill give them a try, shipping can some times kill the deal. Thanks again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JFranklin 457 Posted December 5, 2017 Do you have any friction shops around that might have what you need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjp 29 Posted December 5, 2017 Maybe Pacific Brake in Spokane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjp 29 Posted December 6, 2017 I called a few places in Spokane and nothing. I did not think tubular rivets were that old, but most people did not know what I was even talking about! Hansons Rivets in Calf. was good. With more calling I found some older farmers that enough between them to work. Thanks for all the help and info.
