Loop or split pin? Both can be found by doing a search using upholstery buttons for tufting or just upholstery buttons.
Or do you mean for the points and if so, for what year and brand of coils?
If points, you might be better off just buying new point sets.

Hi Steve: McMaster Carr may have something for you. I don't remember the diameter and length specs for the cushion spring point retainer, these brass semi-tubular rivets might be too large, hope this helps you, good luck, jb

Thanks Folks for Your reply's. I should have been more specific on type application. I have different types of coils I would like to replace the points with good used points. However the rivets on some of the points have collapsed rivets which I would like to "save". I'll try McMaster Carr.
