1 Series E81 130i (N52K) 3-door
-
The standard punch rivets are always replaced by blind rivets in conjunction with bonding.
-
The required strength of the connection is only achieved through a combination of bonding and riveting.
4.0 Setting blind rivets:
-
Refer to repair instructions for rivet size (size 13 or size 15 with 6.5 mm dia. or 4.0 mm dia.).
-
Position blind rivets in the same locations as the extracted punch rivets. Exceptions are described in the relevant
repair instruction. If necessary, carry over the positions of the rivets to the new component.
-
Drill holes (4.2 mm dia. for 4 mm rivet and 6.7 mm dia. for 6.5 mm rivet).
-
Apply adhesive.
-
Insert blind rivet. The riveting direction is the same as the line of vision in the picture shown in the repair instruction
(e.g. from wheel arch into engine carrier).
-
Universally rivet blind rivet with riveting tongs.
-
Seal blind rivet with PU sealing material (risk of corrosion).
-
Seal cavities with preserving agent (risk of corrosion).
5.0 Setting blind rivet nuts and blind rivet bolts:
-
Standard stud welding is always replaced by blind rivet bolts.
-
Drill holes (0.2 mm larger than the outside diameter of the blind rivet nuts or blind rivet bolts).
-
For corrosion reasons, blind rivet nuts and bolts must have a special coating (refer to Workshop Equipment
Planning CD, Chapter 7).
Use the blind rivet nuts and bolts supplied in the case of the manual riveting tool for steel only!
-
Insert blind rivet nuts or bolts and tighten down with the riveting tool.
-
It will no longer be possible to set a blind rivet nut if the drilled hole is too big. In this case, set a clip nut (refer to
"Electronic Parts Catalogue" EPC). This nut tightens itself automatically when screwed to the component.
-
Seal blind rivet nuts and bolts with PU sealing material (risk of corrosion).
