They look like hollow end EZ buck rivets. Maybe not with the flat head.

Hollow-End and Hollow-Body rivets
https://www.mcmaster.com/rivets

You can also use universal head solid shank rivets. MS20470 rivets are available in multiple diameters, lengths, and alloys. If you are interested in this route I can help you out with part numbers and suppliers. I have been replacing hollow-end rivets on my windows with MS20470 rivets as needed.
