Will 5/8-3/4" grip rivets do the job for a 5/8" deck? Or should I go with 7/8-1" grip? Thanks.

Re: Deck Rivets

Are large flange worth an extra $40? The button head lasted 40 years, and I don't plan on having this boat that long haha!

Re: Deck Rivets

To hold down a wood deck.... pop rivets are fine no need for large headed ones

I would go with 7/8-1" grip range
