5.0 out of 5 starsBest manual riveter I've ever used!
By Nathan Blanton on July 31, 2012
Verified Purchase
I bought this riveter to put in some structural rivets into my Jeep Cherokee to repair the door hinge. These were big rivets and the TSB for the fix said the required tool was air riveter capable of using 1/4" rivets. I took a chance on this tool and was thoroughly satisfied. Everything worked great all 4 rivets were put in with little effort. If you've ever used a manual rivet gun, you know how much of P.I.T.A. they are. This riveter will be your go-to tool for riveting as long as you can fit it into the location you are working on. It is extremely solid as well and I would expect this tool to last for many years with continuous use.

4.0 out of 5 starsWorks, but you might need to tinker with it. Definitely requires a procedure to be followed. Try mine
By Calvin H. Phuong on November 20, 2013
Verified Purchase
They work, but you have to figure out the process and there are no instructions. Here's what I know from my experience:

*It will take about 4 opening and closings to complete a full cycle
*you have to turn it towards the sky and open/close it once to get the shank to drop
*if you don't drop the previous shank into the tank, you will not be able to get another one started
*open the arms and insert a rivet into the tool, then close the tool just enough to feel tension. Rivet is now "grabbed"
*Insert the rivet into the hole to be riveted and push in using the tool, careful not to close the arms until the rivet is all the way in
*Close the arms then open and close again. This is usually where the shank pops and the joint is done.
*It may require another open/close before the shank will fully release
*Now the shank needs to be dropped (like in step 2)

** There may be a situation where a shank gets stuck inside the mechanism and you'll have to remove it somehow. I took off the head by unscrewing it, then using a stick to push the shank out of the way. The stick was "caught" by the riveter's jaws so I had to push it through the riveter and out the bottom (with the little tank removed). It was annoying but only happened once in dozens of rivets and I feel it happened because there were too many shanks in the tank and I made the mistake of not turning the riveter up at the sky when working it at the time, allowing a shank to lodge itself back into the pulling mechanism.

4.0 out of 5 starsBest Riveter Ever
By Eric Foucht on November 22, 2012
Verified Purchase
If you are looking for a pop riveter look no further. This well-built tool has the same mechanical advantage as bolt cutters and is made for rivets you wouldn't be able to touch with what you can get at the hardware store. I was able to easily pop 1/4 inch stainless rivets on a recent boat repair. The only downside issue is that it won't fit into some of the really tight corners. Made in China.

5.0 out of 5 starsThis riveter works great !
By Paul on September 14, 2013
Verified Purchase
I have two of these riveters from Astro Pneumatic and they are fantastic.

We do a fair bit of riveting constructing aluminum bus shelters. We had used Arrow brand riveters previously but after a very short duty cycle they no longer grip the rivets (try returning them to Arrow or obtaining replacement "teeth" for them - I expected better from a US company).

These Astro riveters with the opposing handle are great - two easy pumps and the rivet snaps off and the stub is caught in the plastic container. No endless squeezing and struggling to snap the rivet off. No jamming either.

Of course they are made in China (as are the Arrow units), but they are well constructed, and if you are doing more than occasional riveting around the house, you need an Astro riveter.

5.0 out of 5 starsAwesome riveter! Use washers as spacers for tight areas!
By Tech Geek Reviews TOP 1000 REVIEWER on May 17, 2016
Verified Purchase
I've had the usual riveters but this one is really great! Especially if you plan to use it for steel rivets and for more than one job.

My findings:
-Hedge clipper action, rather than plier action much easier!
-Less hand fatigue, and can apply forward pressure while riveting
-Easily handles steel rivets
-Shanks are caught in removable chamber, making less mess
-After 1000s of rivets, still grips well! (not true of my previous $12 standard riveter which only lasted a few hundred)

Helpful hints:
-Point tool toward the sky to load, open and close to seat rivet. After riveting, again point to sky and open to unload shank.
-When riveting tight spots that don't have room for the head, stack washer or nuts on shank and apply tool to full stack. That will give you the clearance you need to use the tool (I had to do this when trying to rivet a handle on a case.

5 stars!

5.0 out of 5 starsMUST HAVE FOR STAINLESS STEEL RIVETS
By Barry Smith on May 20, 2013
Verified Purchase
After trying to set 3/16" stainless steel rivets and breaking a lesser riveter (I probably should not have slipped 2' long pieces if pipe over the handles to get more leverage) I purchased this. Piece of cake, this puppy will set stainless rivets all day long without breaking a sweat. Compound action reduces the effort considerably, and the little plastic bottle catches the pins.

By Stephen Matthews on August 22, 2013

I go through rivet guns like it is cool. Trying to use anything from home depot on a stainless rivet will ruin them, but this one has worked like a champ on everything that fits it. Good bang for the buck
