Rivet Tool MODECO MN-40-018 side riveter with 240 mm barrel and rotary head

MODECO MN-40-018 side riveter with 240 mm barrel and rotary head is designed for installing blind rivets in metal, plastic and other sheet materials. Its side configuration and extended 240 mm barrel allow access to confined or recessed fastening points, while the rotary head accepts multiple mandrel sizes for versatile use. The tool is intended for workshop and mobile applications where precise rivet placement and reliable blind rivet installation are required.

Advantages

The side-mounted body provides improved access in narrow spaces compared with straight riveters. A 240 mm barrel extends reach into recessed locations without compromising control. The rotary head enables quick selection of different mandrel sizes, reducing downtime when switching rivet types. The tool is suitable for repeated fastening operations and offers consistent mandrel pulling action for secure blind rivet joints.

Suitable for

• Installing blind rivets in thin metal sheets and aluminium panels
• Fastening plastic components and composite panels
• Assembly work in confined or recessed areas where straight riveters cannot reach
• Workshop maintenance and on-site repair jobs requiring portable riveting

Key specifications

• Side-mounted rivet tool design with rotary head
• 240 mm extended barrel for deep access
• Rotary (revolver) head accepting several mandrel sizes
• Designed for blind rivet installation in sheet materials
• Hand-operated mechanical pulling mechanism for mandrel extraction

How to use

Select the appropriate mandrel size in the rotary head for the rivet type to be installed, insert the rivet into the pre-drilled hole, and position the barrel over the rivet head. Squeeze the handles to pull the mandrel until the rivet deforms and secures the materials together, then release to expel the spent mandrel. For access in confined spaces, orient the side body and rotate the head to align with the workpiece before pulling. Observe correct rivet diameter and material compatibility for reliable joints.

Usage recommendations

Use with pre-drilled holes matched to the rivet diameter, inspect mandrels and the rotary head for wear before use, and keep the barrel and mechanism clean of debris. For repetitive or heavy-duty work, pause periodically to check tool condition and replace worn components to maintain consistent rivet quality.
