I am looking for 10 either AN470AD8 or MS20470AD8 rivets (two different 

part numbers for the same rivet).  I realize this rivet is REALLY wide 

for our typical application, but I have a specific need and just can not 

find a source for the rivet!  The length is unimportant, as I can cut 

them down to the size I need.  If you have any information as to where I 

can get these PLEASE e-mail me!  Did I mention that once I have these 

bad boys squeezed into the holes they will be filling, the plane will be 

signed off and first flight will be made!!  By the way, ACS and the 

usual sources stop at AD6 rivets!

Travis, how many do you need and of what lengths?

Depending on the application, a 1/4" round head steel screw and nyloc 

nut might be an easier solution.  The screw will be stronger than an 

aluminum rivet, and it won't require a compatible rivet set like the 

AN470AD8 will.
