>From the F12 website:

...."Force 12 is the first manufacturer to provide riveted element 
construction. The rivets used by FORCE 12 are from the aircraft industry and 
are called "closed end" rivets, since they are solid aluminum, with no hole. 
They are designed specifically for applications with vibration. If 
necessary, they can be drilled out for repairs or transport and new rivets 
installed for re-assembly".....

As usual, no connection other than as a satisfied user.
