Bsp and bsps are the same rivet. Different companies label them differently.

BSPS-46 rivets

Post by fwellman@att.net »

Hi,

The builders manual calls for BSPS-46 rivets (structural) to secure the nylon slider pieces to ribs 4 and 7. I have been unable to
locate BSPS-46 rivets, only BSP-46. The longest BSPS rivet I can find is a -44.

Is it okay to use the BSP-46 instead of the BSPS-46, or does someone have a source for the BSPS-46?

Thanks,
Fred
