Try using a drill bit that's the same size as the rivet; the hole can still be used again if you are only making an adjustment to your work piece. The other two methods? That's for butchers or demolition work.

If you plan to reuse the rivet hole don't use an oversized bit. Keep it the same size as it was originally drilled with. The pieces will go back together cleanly. Most of what I install in ships is riveted. Upwards of 15k+ rivets per project with 2 guys. Granted we rarely have to remove any but it happens and drilling is by far the cleanest method.

Very clear and instructional video. You outlined the methods, tools, added titles and illustrated each. Great presentation. Very helpful. Thank you for your time and efforts and for sharing. All the blessings to you.

Don’t pay attention to all the sarcasm on here; the video was a great way to let me know my options. I’m trying to remove rivets from hardware on a vintage suitcase, so either a tiny drill will work or the screwdriver/chisel method will work. Thank you for a clear and concise video. Have a great day!

The correct drill size, drill only far enough into the head for the correct size punch to fit inside.. rheem the punch in the rivet head around in circles. If the head doesn't pop off easily then drill a little more. Once the head is taken off with the punch, take a small hammer and knock it the rest of the way through with the punch. That chisel method is going to mar up the surface.

Using these pull through rivets at work to bind a plastic cover to an aluminum base. Pain in the butt when it doesn't go all the way through with the gun and takes forever to try and pull it out or sand down without it being noticeable. Happened again right now and never thought about hammering it out, worked like a charm!

Always drill from the head side, ensure you have the correct size drill, make sure you hold the drill square to the hole, STOP as soon as the head separates, DO NOT push the drill thorough the hole several times, or you will will end up with an enlarged hole. and need a a bigger rivet or it will not have the same grip as the original. but the main thing is to ensure you are central on the rivet or you will end up with a figure of eight shaped hole. Punch out the rivet remains and remove any swarf before you re rivet. Beware the removed rivet head may be hot and will be sharp. remove from the drill bit with care.

8meals one thing you can do is check with rivets you will use on the repair. The drill bit is better slightly small rather than to big. Once the first head is off you can use hole as a guide before drilling the others. If you have rivets that are hard to get to . Do one easy one to get the size of the bit you need then do the awkward ones . Best of luck

Can you show us what rivet gun did you use to put those rivets at battens? Do you know dimensions of those rivets? This aluminum battens look like dry van trailer side battens.

Followed the drill method here and it worked fine for getting the heads out, then I used a punch and hammer to pop out the rest of the rivet.

If a rivet is loose (so it'll just spin when you try to drill it), is the only option to hammer and chisel it? Anybody know any other options that are less likely to damage something?

I'd just like to say that I like things like that big old chisel, probably used to be twice that size. It's just been grinded down that many times its shrunk. A proper bloke with proper tools that have been well used and he even has the proper big old tough hands and sausage fingers. Now that's what I'd say is a proper bloke, a geezer or just a Man's Man. Just soldiers on and takes care of business, well done 👍.

this helped a lot! didnt have any other tools but a hammer and a screwdriver lol just had to tear apart the rivets

Thanks for posting.

Kool,think I'll try the drill first.That chisel had a sharp edge.

Thanks! Very useful.

Thanks for the Video great technique

what size drill bit did you use?

Just my two cents. The drill works good for maybe or two rivets if your lucky. I learned that using a grinder for the first initial removal and once you get it down far enough you can use a punch and a good hammer to finish the holes off. I can do a rivet a minute or so. Im working on a box truck door hardware every single hinge and roller need replaced. If anyone's ever looking for the hardware you can find it on ebay. Make sure you get the right sized wheels. Hope that helps someone. I abandoned the drill all together.

Love it, thanks 👏🏻

To me it looked like the fastest method is the chisel and hammer; All methods will scratch the side being worked on; and It's a pain when drilling a rivet and it starts to spin with the drill bit. I had never thought of using a chisel and hammer; wow, that is fast and with a little care, can be not too damaging. Cheers. Thanks for sharing. Good video.

This repair is beautiful for breathing new life into a solid toolbox. It has increased the security of the toolbox from one where eventually the lid would break off on its own to one where there is no risk of that. But the repair is not as secure as the original design. The original design was built with hidden hinges so that an attacker had to attack the locking mechanism to get in. And it's a good locking mechanism. Rivets are easy to break through with only a hammer and a screwdriver. This fix will keep opportunists away, and keep your stuff dry, but it is not better than replacing the product under warranty when it comes to thieves who are willing to carry a screwdriver and a hammer which is a pretty low bar.

number 2 the best for car speakers!!!!!

I did the drill was very helpful

Drill should be exact or 1mm thicker than rivet tail. Drill should never go trough the material just remove the head and pinch the pin trough. It is important not to enlarge the hole 1) because sometimes rivets are visible on a cover - You don't want to put another rivet off center - You want to put the same rivet in the same place in original hole. 2) what about another time? You cant enlarge the hole each time and put larger rivet. This way You can do it 100 times and get the same result. 3) what if the hole itself has antirust surface protection inside? drilling it off will remove this surface and will lead to rusting.

Start small and increase the drill bit size after each drill until you reach the point where the rivet can be removed. Without knowing the exact size of the hole, this 'work your way up' approach will prevent making a bigger hole and reveal the size of bit you need to remove the rest.

Regular drill bit

I manufacture rivets, and often drill them out for testing purposes. Best ways as a fact. Diameter drill should match the head diameter of the rivet head. Then gradually shave it off until the tail falls out the other side. The shave concept, versus drill out it key, which is most effectively done with a larger drill dimeter. Smaller drill bits equal to or close to the body doesn't work well as the helix will catch causing the rivet to torque out which then means you can't shave it anymore. Absolutely no damage to the surfaces with good practice
