Techies, Here's a question for the assembly folks and manufacturing engineers. I want to specify a test connector and its backshell to be riveted together. What I want to specify is a pop-rivet. That way, the rivets can just be loaded in a gun and installed during low quantity production. I can easily call up 400+ rivet specs and processes online (IHS Specs and Standards). I'm looking for a recommendation for "industry standard" pop-rivets and process specs. Anybody got a clue? By the way, if I'm off-base here, somebody tell me. I can easily specify a solid rivet to be rolled over. I'm trying to keep this relatively cheap and easy to install. Thanks for you help, Michael Hiteshew Lockheed Martin NE&SS Marine Systems [log in to unmask] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt delivery of Technet send the following message: SET Technet NOMAIL Search previous postings at: www.ipc.org > On-Line Resources & Databases > E-mail Archives Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
