Riveter Squeezer Yato YT-36128 Width 360 mm

The Riveter Squeezer Yato YT-36128 Width 360 mm is a hand-operated riveting tool engineered for pressing and compressing blind rivets in sheet metal, automotive bodywork, ductwork and general assembly tasks. With a 360 mm overall width, this squeezer provides increased leverage for reduced manual effort while maintaining control during repetitive riveting operations. The tool's robust construction supports sustained use in workshop and on-site environments, delivering consistent clinch quality across common rivet sizes.

Advantages

The design delivers improved mechanical advantage due to the longer tool width, enabling firmer, uniform rivet setting with less strain on the operator. Built from durable materials, the squeezer resists bending and wear under frequent use and offers stable alignment of rivets to reduce missets. Its straightforward, one‑tool operation eliminates the need for multiple adapters for standard blind rivet applications, contributing to faster workflow and consistent joint integrity.

Suitable for

• Setting blind rivets in sheet metal panels and trims
• Automotive body repair and trim fastening
• HVAC duct assembly and metal enclosure fabrication
• General maintenance and light industrial assembly

Key specifications

• Tool type: manual rivet squeezer
• Overall width: 360 mm for greater leverage
• Construction: hardened metal components for durability
• Operation: single-handle squeeze action for blind rivets
• Compatibility: suitable for common blind rivet diameters used in sheet metal work

How to use

Position the rivet through the two workpieces and align the rivet head with the squeezer jaws. Place the squeezer around the rivet body so the jaws engage the rivet head and the mandrel. Squeeze the handles firmly and evenly until the rivet deforms and secures the materials together, then release the handles and remove the spent mandrel. For repeat operations, maintain steady hand placement and consistent pressure to achieve uniform results.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the tool before use to ensure jaws and pivot points are free of debris and lubricated as recommended by general tool maintenance practices. Select rivet diameters appropriate for material thickness and ensure correct seating before full compression. Store the squeezer in a dry place to prevent corrosion and check for wear periodically; replace if jaws no longer grip securely.
