Pop Rivets are materials that help in joining thin pieces of metal or plastic materials and sheets. The technique is called Pop Riveting and is an easy way to do repairs anywhere. This technique is used where the materials to be joined is thin and where the joint to be formed is not strong such as for joining aluminum, plastic, etc.
There are many kinds of Pop Rivets such as open-end rivets, high strength rivets, blind rivets, etc and they differ in size and function. Thus, before buying make sure you know these things and then buy.
If you are new to this technique you can read the steps below to know how to use it as well as remove it.
Steps to use: it can be applied in 3 steps. Keep in mind that the Pop Rivet has mainly two parts; the pin and the rivet.
·         Step 1: drill the two pieces that is intended to be joined together. Make sure that the size of the drill is a bit larger than the rivet.
·         Step 2: the Pop Rivet is passed through both the holes and joined,
·         Step 3: the rivet is pushed onto the pin and the handles are pulled together. This will cause the pin to fall and the rivet shall be left to hold the sheets together. You need to use a Pop Rivet gun for this purpose.

Steps to remove:
1.      You will need tools such as chisel or flat head screwdriver, hammer and metal rod.
2.      Access: The material that has been joined together has to be accessed to know the thickness and the amount of force to be used. Sometimes, if the material used is very thin then it can even be simply torn with much force.
3.      Pop Rivethead: this step is to remove the Pop Rivethead by drilling on the hollow part of the Pop Rivet. You need to do this until it comes off and can do this with a hammer, chisel or a screwdriver.
4.      Push: the Pop Rivet is to be pushed out.
