Thank you.
I am not 100% sure the other part is aluminium. Is there a simple way to get clarity on this without damaging it? I'm not sure I am seeing any corrosion on the part, but the hue is slightly different. It could possibly be titanium.
The tube is for certain 3-2.5 Ti.
I am assuming...
Hi and thanks for the reply. It's a high end mountain bike frame from 35 years ago. I would like a replacement rivet and am not sure what material is best to ensure it does not react with the other parts.
I need to replace a rivet that is holding an alu part to a titanium tube of a 35 year old bicycle. The rivet is quite rusty.
It will see only mild weather, and will mostly be inside, with possibly an occasional exposure to rain.
What material rivet will be best for this application?
