What are the best size rivets for attaching 1.25" x .125 aluminum angle together for deck framing and attaching to hull. I am having a hard time figuring out all the different sizes....

Thanks for your help
 
so how about the sealing blind rivets, for rivets that will be under the water line...or is just putting a dab of 5200 on a regular blind rivet good enough?
 
I re read your ? 1.25x1.25 Angle comes in various thickness .Take the thickness of the 2 piece you want to attach together .Example 1/8 and 1/8 put together make 1/4 so you need a ;grip range that 1/4 falls in or;a minimum grip or slightly less..Hope thats clearer than mud...cva34
