SERVICE GUIDELINES:
• Aluminum repairs should be performed in an area protected from steel working areas, and tools used in
aluminum repair should be quarantined from steel repair tools.
NOTE: If SPRs are called out in the materials table and procedure as a possible repair option, the
replacement SPRs must be installed adjacent to the original SPR Locations.
• Blind rivets may be installed in original SPR holes, after they are reamed out to 6.5mm. Be sure to grind all
surfaces of the flange smooth prior to blind rivet installation in original SPR locations.
• Flow Drill Screws (FDS) are to be replaced by blind rivets only. The original location of the FDS is used, but
reamed out to 6.5mm.
• Rivets may be removed by drilling, grinding, or SPR gun set up as a rivet removal tool.
• Using heat (not exceeding 425°F) to loosen a rivet bonded panel should only be done when all panels in the
joint will be replaced or separated and new adhesive applied.
• Flange preparation for adhesive is to grind to clean metal with 80-120 grit, clean, and then apply the adhesive,
spreading it out with an acid brush, covering any exposed aluminum.
• Clecos are an excellent way to hold the panels into position when fitting and drilling rivet holes.
