How to use

Select the correct interchangeable nosepiece for the rivet diameter being used and install it into the riveter according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Insert the rivet through the materials to be joined, place the riveter’s nose over the rivet stem, squeeze the handles evenly until the rivet sets and the mandrel breaks off, then release the handles and remove the spent mandrel. Inspect the joint to ensure the rivet head and blind side have formed correctly and repeat as needed for additional fastenings.

Usage recommendations

Use rivets appropriate for the base materials and thicknesses; select the matching nosepiece before starting work. Keep the riveter clean and store it dry to maintain smooth operation. For frequent or heavy-duty applications consider periodic inspection of moving parts for wear and replace worn components to preserve consistent riveting performance.
