What Customers Are Saying
The tool is well-designed and versatile, with a one-handed operation that makes riveting tasks easy and efficient. It has a durable construction, color-coded interchangeable nosepieces for different rivet sizes, and a smooth operation that is praised by users. While the one-handed design works well for most, some with smaller hands found it challenging to fully close the handles, especially when using larger rivets. Overall, the tool is widely regarded as an excellent choice for a wide range of DIY and professional projects.

Would RecommendI bought this for a first-time experience with hard-to-find copper rivets, repairing copper gutter on a church building. Accuracy and reliability mattered, as the rivets were expensive. It worked like a charm, and allowed me enough freedom with my hands to push the rivet firmly into the opening to hold well in the mostly blind-riveted points.

Truly a piece of a junk
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I initially wrote a longer review and Arrow rejected it - long story short, it doesn't work and is a piece of junk. My code is 1117 for the free storage caddy, please provide details on how I can get this.

Great one-handed riveter
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works exactly as I'd hoped right out of the packing. It's compact enough that it doesn't take up much space in my toolbox and fits in one hand, but built very tough. 1117
