Riveting direction
Always from new part to used part.
Deviations are specified in the vehicle-specific repair instructions.
- Rivet punch rivets with punch rivet tool. In the meantime clean riveting die and matrix if fouled with adhesive.
- Seal punch rivets in moist area (e.g. wheel arch or carrier support) on both sides with SEALANTD1 (risk of corrosion).
- Seal cavities after painting vehicle with CAVITY SEALANT (risk of corrosion).
