Hanson was the outrageous quote I got and that took them 5 weeks to get me that answer.

Peel is a word I hadn't thought of to use, but that looks to only be used with blind or "pop" rivets. I need semi tubular and all they have is "split", but thanks for the new word to search with.

I need to replace about 50 rivets like the one in the attached photo. The material is fiberglass. The diameter of the old rivets is .140 and the grip is both .200 and .250. We prefer to use stainless steel. They are flat or slightly oval shaped head tubular rivets with the six “legs” on the...
