CR3242-5-08, manufacturer nominal. Simplified envelope model from Cherry CA-1011 p.13 printed dimensions. Manufacturer nominal: printed values, the mean where only two limits are printed. Flush heads hold the printed head angle; the head depth is derived. Not manufacturer CAD. Verify against the current catalog before use. Separate solids for the sleeve and the stem envelope. Axis +Z, head up, z = 0 at the face the head bears on. STEP (AP214) is in inches; STL has no units and is written in millimetres.
“The CherryMAX® Rivet is inserted into the prepared hole. The pulling head (installation tool) is slipped over the rivet’s stem. Applying a firm, steady pressure, which seats the rivet head, the installation tool is then actuated.”
