## Description and construction

Double cap saddlery rivet with bite (a very useful notch near the tip of the stem) that will speed up the riveting process, primarily for belts, collars and harnesses, and increase the strength of the join. Double cap rivets are used where both sides of the rivet will be visible, or where a rivet comes in contact with other surfaces (purse and other handles, leashes, collars, harnesses, …). The price listed is for the entire package (1000 pcs)!

For proper riveting, it is essential to choose the right tool both for creating the hole and for setting the rivet itself. For making the hole, we recommend punches #KEM/LSHP30 or #211700STP-6. For riveting using the hand press #3990-00, use dies #3997-20 Z. For manual riveting, tools #8101-20 Z or #RS/6x100 are suitable. The size of the die or setting tool must always be selected according to the rivet size. You can also find suitable riveting tools among the recommended products below. The correct tool will be displayed based on the rivet size you select.

How to chose the correct-length rivet?

Whether we work with leather, webbing or fabric, the thickness of the material is always the deciding factor. For a the rivet to spread properly, choose one that is about 2–3 mm longer than the total thickness of the material. For rivet length see dimension "B" in the table.


## Limits and maintenance

* Tolerates contact with water — rain, wet grass, damp hands. With regular soaking the finish ages faster and loses appearance. Better to dry after wetting.
* Provides a temporary barrier against moisture. Works well in dry environments, but protection weakens over time with regular contact with water or sweat.
* Thin decorative coating that gradually wears through with regular wear and friction. Wear shows fairly quickly at points where buckle or snap contacts the strap, ring or fur.
* At points of regular friction — typically the buckle edge, snap contact point or strap — the finish gradually wears through and the base material shows beneath.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How do I choose the right rivet length?

The total thickness of the layers you're joining decides — add to it the shank overhang needed for spreading:


	
	Thinner materials — a shank 1–2 mm longer than the material thickness.
	
	
	Thicker materials — a shank 2–3 mm longer.
	


The shank length is listed for every rivet in the dimensions table as dimension B — the full range is in the Rivets & Screws category.

The hole diameter differs by material. For leather, choose a punch slightly smaller than the shank diameter — leather is elastic and grips the shank tightly. For waterproof webbing, choose a punch that matches the shank exactly; the webbing doesn't stretch, so the shank has to pass through without being forced.

A shank that's too long shows up as a rivet that deforms while spreading, or caps that don't line up.
