🔗 Tandy Leather 0.5-inch Copper Rivets and Burrs Size #9, 50 pack (model: 11280-00) Review

I like it. I used it to make and convert a holster to a demon leg holster. Also use it for combinations of leather, kydex and polyester as shown in fig.

Before purchasing this product I recommend watching Tandy Leather's YouTube tutorial on how to fit these rivets. Although this video uses a simple claw hammer to drive the rivet, I believe purchasing a ball hammer will be worth the money. These rivets are very strong and can hold a lot of weight.

The copper metal color is natural for leather bindings so it looks good. You need to make a hole for the rivet before installing it as a fastener. It is NOT self penetrating. Copper is a soft metal but a strong metal which is what makes these rivets so effective because of their thickness. Also purchase or have a rivet punch to press the spoke into the clamp head on the back of the material to be tied together.

This is art, there are many videos but you don't understand everything very well. a piece of metal with holes on one side and small notches or domes on the other, that's what sets them up. For sizing reference, they are larger than Levi's jeans small pocket rivets, but are very similar in concept. You can vaguely see it. Flush a sheathed knife here. Basically they go the same way as the product picture with a piece of leather in between, you can use a piece of metal or an anvil to make sure…
