No bushing... Rivet is 8011251 according to the catalog. That is a RIVET 6-16 PH HD-ALUM (RIVET 3/16 x 1-1/8 PH-AL)

I believe it relates to 1/32 of an inch, so (6) 6/32 = 3/16" Diameter and (16) 16/32 = 1/2" Grip length.

first number is diameter in 32nds of an inch
second number is length in 16ths

Must make sense to somebody, but I always had to stop and figure
