Master link question

[silver03]

Can a clip style master link be riveted? I bought a used K7 and the chain was replaced, but I just noticed it has a clip style master. I've used the pro motion tool I have a few times so I am good with that, just don't know if I can rivet the clip link.
If not, how do I figure out what type of chain I have?
Thanks,
John

No. The rivet type have a hollow
End designed to rivet. The clip has a groove that likely will not distort properly and thus be dangerous.

The chain should say on the main links what kind it is. Look on both sides carefully

Thanks guys. I knew I'd get a quick answer here.

zip ties?

+1 to the above. You just need to make sure you get exactly the same master rivet link as the chain as the specs between different models are different. So just ensure you get the exact same rivet link as the chain. Too often we see dealers chuck any rivet link at any chain and that shouldn't be done.
