  4. 4.8mm dia
    11.5mm length
    9.5mm head

    Only ever seen aluminium myself and I always put aluminium one back as they are easier to drill out.

  6. Get some sealed blind rivets, rather than the usual ones that are open both ends

  8. Use ally, the next time you remove them you'll be thankful you did.

    Plus they weigh less...

  9. I used alloy on my 9R . The heads melted off . Had to get an industrial rivit gun to pop the stainless ones in.


    Should have said I have an old stuart eastern Ti termi off his race 749 . Re-packed it and used alloy rivits . The ones on the top , all of them , melted into a ball of alloy and the bottom bits dropped off. Could have been down to the Ti though.
