Hand Riveter Beta Tools 1740B/330 lever-type 330 mm with 5 interchangeable tips

Lever-type hand riveter Beta Tools 1740B/330 is a 330 mm manual tool designed for installing blind rivets. The riveter features a long lever arm that increases mechanical advantage, enabling controlled insertion and reliable clinching of rivets in sheet metal, light structural joints and repair work. It is supplied with five interchangeable tips to accommodate a range of common rivet diameters, making it adaptable to different fastening requirements in workshops, construction sites and DIY projects.

Advantages

The lever mechanism reduces operator effort and improves repeatability compared with short-handled riveters. Five interchangeable tips expand the tool’s versatility, allowing one tool to cover multiple rivet sizes without additional adapters. The 330 mm length provides higher pulling force and better reach in confined spaces while maintaining a stable grip and straightforward mechanical operation. The tool’s simple construction supports easy maintenance and long service life under normal use conditions.

Suitable for

• Installing blind rivets in sheet metal and light-gauge materials
• Workshop assembly and maintenance tasks
• Construction and renovation fastening work
• Automotive and machinery repair where blind rivets are used
• DIY projects and home repairs requiring secure permanent fastenings

Key specifications

• Tool type: lever-action hand riveter
• Overall length: 330 mm
• Number of interchangeable tips: 5
• Tip compatibility: multiple common blind rivet diameters (supplied)
• Operation: manual mechanical leverage
• Typical applications: blind rivet installation in metal, plastics and thin composite panels

How to use

Select the appropriate interchangeable tip for the rivet diameter and fit it into the nosepiece. Insert the rivet through the parts to be joined, position the rivet head against the material and place the mandrel into the tip. Squeeze the lever handles together steadily until the mandrel snaps and the rivet is set. Release the handles and remove the spent mandrel. For consistent results, ensure the tool and tips are clean and the rivet lengths match the material thickness.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate eye protection when setting rivets. Use rivets with diameters and grip ranges that match the supplied tips; avoid forcing oversized rivets. Periodically inspect and clean the tips and nosepiece; lubricate pivot points lightly if operation becomes stiff. Store the tool in a dry place to prevent corrosion and preserve performance.
