Review on πŸ”§ Effortless Precision: RZX Riveter Riveting Setting Mandrels Unleashed! by Michael Nard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great in riveting machines

I used this to install 10 1/4-20 nuts on the roof of my Volvo. Worked perfectly. A few tips: you need to practice. You need to determine the correct hole size for the nut. I used a bolt, washer and nut with two wrenches to crimp the nut before I got this tool. The illustrations on the left front and back show the assembled but deformed screw rivet. The ones on the right show the perfect crimp with the tool. This practice was on 16 gauge aluminum. Now for the people who break the thread riveter, you're trying too hard. After the initial closing force, it becomes easier as the nut is crimped. Once you reach the next stop or resistance point, STOP. They have made. Handles do not need to be trimmed to the end. The set bolt pulls the back of the rivet against the metal, and the part you are fastening applies a counter force to the metal containing the rivet nut. Practice, practice, practice.
