As you know in MacBooks the keyboard is fastened with rivets making it basically impossible to repair or exchange. Anyone knows the dimensions of these rivets? Thickness and length?

You need to find the screws to replace the rivets. Here’s one source Keyboard screws

These screws are having a delivery term of 1 month. They seem to be casted (not machined) as they are too small. I am not Swiss but for the moment I live in Switzerland, they are famous for their watches. I am pretty sure I can find better quality screws here so I was asking if somebody knows the dimensions of these screws so I can order the equivalent.
@Codrut Popescu - Hate to tell you 90% of screws are formed not cast. A rod of material is heated and a press with a form is pressed into it. Similar to how a water wheel works spitting them out at a very high rate.
This technique has been used for years. All of the screws Apple uses are made this way. Only the stand-offs are machined.
If you own a Tesla its lower chassis is die-cast formed! Why Tesla Needed the Giga Press
So don’t jump thinking formed or casted via a press makes the part weak. I think you’ll discover a machined screw in this size will be quite expensive.
Very informative. Thanks for the explanation, really appreciate your help.
