Hand Rivet Nut Tool GoTel K264B — manual rivet nut setter for threaded inserts

GoTel K264B is a manual rivet nut tool designed to set rivet nuts and threaded inserts in sheet metal and other thin materials where a reliable internal thread is required. The tool operates by mechanical leverage to compress blind rivet nuts, forming a secure flange and locking the insert in place. It is intended for workshop, maintenance, and assembly situations where a handheld, non-powered solution is preferred.

Advantages

The manual design ensures consistent, controllable setting of rivet nuts without the need for electric or pneumatic equipment. Compact and ergonomically shaped handles provide leverage for repeated installations while reducing operator fatigue. Built from durable materials, the tool offers long service life under normal workshop use and is compatible with a range of common rivet nut sizes. Its straightforward mechanical action simplifies training and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Installing blind rivet nuts in sheet metal panels and thin-walled structures
• On-site maintenance and repair tasks where power tools are unavailable
• Small to medium production runs and assembly operations requiring threaded inserts
• Automotive, HVAC, electrical enclosures, and metal fabrication workshops

Key specifications

• Operation type: manual, mechanical lever action
• Intended use: setting blind rivet nuts / threaded inserts in thin materials
• Compatibility: accepts commonly used rivet nut sizes for hand tools (check insert size range before use)
• Construction: robust metal components for workshop durability
• Portability: handheld, no external power source required

How to use

Select a rivet nut of the appropriate size for the material thickness and thread required. Assemble the correct mandrel and nosepiece on the tool, thread the rivet nut onto the mandrel, insert the rivet nut into the prepared hole, and operate the handles to compress the nut until the insert deforms and creates a secure flange on the blind side. Release the handles and unthread the mandrel to leave the installed rivet nut in place. Follow standard safety precautions such as wearing eye protection and maintaining a firm grip while operating the tool.

Usage recommendations

Use the GoTel K264B with rivet nuts and mandrels matched to the required thread size and material thickness. Prepare holes to the correct diameter and ensure workpieces are clamped or supported to prevent movement during installation. Inspect mandrels and nosepieces regularly for wear and replace components as needed to maintain reliable setting performance.
