Die Application - Pro Spot PR-8 Instruction Manual

5 .1
Removal Die - The new removal die provides more robust removal of longer rivets (10mm), eliminating jamming and
breaking where the previous SPR rivet was located . Using this system, SPR rivets can be removed in a fraction of
the time it would take to drill out .
Flow Form Rivets - TIn areas where you cannot fit an adjacent SPR or where repair procedures don't allow it, Flow
Form Rivets are the answer . Becoming more popular in repair procedures, Flow Form uses a calibration punch,
which allows a Flow Form Rivet to be installed in the same location as the original joint . The time it would take to
drill out .
APPLICATION PROCEDURES:
Installing Self-Piercing Rivets (SPR)
1 . Align the removal dies in the center of SPR .
2 . Complete pressure cycle so the male rivet die pushes the
SPR through the base materials into the forming die .
3. Proceed to next rivet.
