Hi Rex, Those fasteners are both "pop rivets" and screws. They are an advel design of light alloy rivet with an external thread and a hexagonal head on the die. They fasten with standard automatic riveting equipment but can be removed and re-installed with a allen (hex) key. They work very well.

That's what was mounting one I got several years ago. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
