Cymbal Rivets - Nickel Plated Steel Split Rivets

Are you dreaming of achieving that beautiful, full, and lush decay with rivets in your cymbal? Then read on, because here's one - among several - possible solutions for you.

Split rivets in nickel plated steel

These split cymbal rivets in steel provide the authentic "sizzle" decay in your cymbal, reminiscent of what you know from jazz ballads.

The rivets are installed by inserting it into the pre-drilled hole in your cymbal. All you need to do is slightly bend the two split parts outward on the underside of the cymbal - this way, the rivet won't pop back out of the hole.

When bending the legs, make sure to create the "bend" as far down the leg as possible, allowing the rivet to have some clearance; otherwise, it won't rattle much.
