the inside of the chair frame, the short shank

(30-516) rivet will be used. If the rivet hole is

pressed or bears a slight indention where it w

pressed into the chair frame and is located on

the inside of the frame, a long shank rivet (30

slightly longer neck which allows the rivet to

Single Wrap w/ Pressed Hole

Hole will be located on the INSIDE of the chair

frame.

If rivet hole is pressed into the frame and has a

slight indention, a slightly longer rivet will be

needed for added depth. The 30-515 long

shank rivets will be used in this situation.

Double Wrap

Hole will be located on the bottom side of the

chair frame.

If the hole is located on the bottom side of the

chair frame, the 30-512 double wrap solid

shank rivets will be used in this situation. Since

a double wrap strap wraps on top of itself, a

shank is not required on the rivet.
