For those that don't know Clecos, they are temporary fasteners for holding panels when you drill them for spot-welds, screws or pop rivets.

Clecko's----- Amazing tools. used by the avaition industry and sheetmetal fabrication shops. Application does'nt stop at metalworking either. Can be used on any type of composite panel as well as a temporary fixing system.
Pop into any aircraft repair or manufacturing facility and you will see forests of cleckoes sticking out of panels under repair or replacement.

Best way to describe them is to call them removable pop rivets
