Bar nose rivets

[freddog]

Need rivets for GB bar nose. Just picked up a 50 inch titanium. Want to change the nose to 404 chain . Any ideas of a dealer to contact.

I've found many nose rivets can be used between brands. I bought a pack of 100 by measuring them and sourcing them off Ebay for a couple of bucks....solid countersunk rivets.

It is also possible to make your own from a piece of steel rod that matches the diameter of the hole. Just cut them to length (I try to keep them about 3/16" or 5 mm long) and then rive them over with a ball peen hammer. Use the flat face of the hammer when you are done to put the finishing touch on them. The steel rod they sell in most farm, fleet, and big box stores works just fine.
