McFarlane offers either rivets or screws as convenient kits containing AN and MS hardware. Since it is difficult to install many of the rivets required to attach the seat rail, it is permissible to substitute screws with ultimate tensile strength exceeding 50 ksi with lock nuts provided the holes are ream fit and spotfaced. Each kit contains enough rivets or screws to install four seat rails. Installation hardware items are also available separately.
Note: These kits do not contain all required hardware for Cessna model 177 seat rails.
