Hi Guys

I've been given some 'Cherry' rivets from a friends hanger clear-out, and
I'm amazed to see that they have a use by date !!! - not having used any of
these rivets before, is this usual, and how significant is the date.

Cheers

If you keep them bagged and clean, I do not see any problem using them. I dont think the effect would be like drinking milk way past the expiration date.

If in doubt, shoot one or two rivets into a piece of scrap metal before going any farther

Hi Guys

Supplementary question:

Can I use normal POP rivets pullers for 'Cherry' rivets, I've got both hand and pneumatic

Cheers

Yes you can use the normal puller. Its amazing how much more "tough" the cherry max rivets feel while pulling them!
