Hockey Skates Rivets

To All of You Hockey Smarts….?
-For Roller Hockey-
If you have a pair handy you will notice that they most likely have a brass rivet for the very back rivet.
I am looking at getting my ice skates turned into roller blades and my roller blades turned into ice skates.
Yes I have checked and it would work for the switch.
My Question is, what if they dont have abrass rivet for the back?
will a regular black one work just as well like on an ice skate??
and what is the purpose of the brass rivet instead of a regular one??
HabsFan- did your grafs hold up, or did they fall apart?
I know the black ones look better but the copper ones are a lot stronger.
