I would like to know if you have some criteria for what type of metal roof rivets be used in specific applications? We have a metal standing seam roof that we are surveying which is about 6 years old. The building is located approximately 1/2 mile to the Pacific Ocean in Santa Cruz, California. The rivets used to secure the roofing are rusting.	Guest User 10/30/2007	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10460/find/
Rivets should be stainless steel. Most manufacturers stock them in matching colors to their roof materials.	Brian Selig Architectural Building Components Metal Roof and Wall Panels 10/31/2007	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10461/find/
For aluminum roofing, aluminum rivets are also an option. And copper for copper.	Todd Miller Isaiah Industries, Inc. 11/4/2007	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10462/find/
