        pop rivet? water outlet?

        pop rivet is a very popular rivet..you can find in aluminum or stainless steel..

        water outlet is out of the water cooling system of motor / esc or Bilge pump ... remove the inside of the rivet, just make a hole in the side of the hull above the water line and connect the hose in the rivet ..

        in this chris craft i use for a bilge pump..

        cheers!!

          Been using pop rivets for a number of years. I actually prefer the dome shaped Aluminum ones as you can sand them with 1500 grit and polish them to a Mirrorr finish

              Jim,

              Excuse my ignorance, but what is a "dome shaped Aluminum " ?



              from here comes the pop idea...



              cheers!!

                  If you look at the picture you see that there is actually a dome and the rivit hear is thicker near the opening. Hope this helps

                      It is an aluminum pop rivet.
