Where can I get flat topped copper (Mushroom) rivets? Needs to be quarter inch dia. shank. (Eqiv 6mm?)

For those that also :cb can remember that far back, the type that came with replacement car brake linings where you had to strip off the old linings and rivet the new ones on.

I only need about 10....so if anyone has some lying about, I'd gladly refund the postage.

I have something similar, head is just a shade over 13mm diameter, shank is 5mm, length is 12mm.
Countersunk type though. I say countersunk, very shallow angle, think they have a proper name, but cannot remember it.

Cheers Hitch. The countersink could be a problem. Do you mind if we let it run for a couple of days just to see if anyone has an alternative? The length is more that adequate, only about 8mm needed.

Thanks for the offer. I may well be getting back to you. :thumbright:
