I hate to start a thread on this but I've contacted a few different ppl from here and have had no luck! I have this Techlite bar that really don't have all that much use on it & the dang rivets came out of the nose. I know there are numerous threads on these bars coming apart but I can't find anyone with solutions to replacing the sprocket nose rivets.
Yes. It's just the rivets. The nose, from what I can see is perfectly fine. The dang rivets just came out somehow.
Does anyone have a solution to this? Something that isn't going to add up to the cost of a new bar. I'm just not sure where to look for rivets or they're specific name other than "chainsaw sprocket nose rivets".. Google that and you don't get much relevant info. Even when I go to manufacturers sites where the different types of rivets are listed, I'm not sure what type in looking for.
All I do know is the hole for the rivet is just a c-hair bigger than a 15/64's drill bit. I haven't mic'd the depth yet. I know I'm going to need a few more measurements to find the right solution so best with me till I find my calipers/vemeer, whatever it's called.
Here a pic.
