Air Riveter

Air Riveter

Air riveters are pneumatic tools used to join two pieces of metal together by inserting a rivet into a hole and then expanding the rivet's end with compressed air. Air riveters are typically used in automotive repair, construction, and manufacturing.

How do air riveters work?

Air riveters work by using compressed air to drive a piston that expands the rivet's end. This expansion forces the rivet's stem into the hole, creating a strong joint.

Types of air riveters

There are two main types of air riveters:

  • Straight air riveters are the most common type of air riveter. They are used for riveting sheet metal and other thin materials.
  • Angled air riveters are used for riveting thicker materials. They have a longer nose that allows the riveter to be positioned at a 90-degree angle to the workpiece.

Features of air riveters

Air riveters typically have the following features:

  • A trigger that controls the flow of compressed air
  • A pressure regulator that allows you to control the amount of air pressure used
  • A nosepiece that holds the rivet and guides it into the hole
  • A depth stop that prevents the rivet from being driven too far into the hole

Benefits of using air riveters

Air riveters offer a number of benefits over manual riveters, including:

  • Greater speed and efficiency
  • Less fatigue
  • Improved accuracy
  • Reduced risk of injury

Applications of air riveters

Air riveters are used in a wide variety of applications, including:

  • Automotive repair
  • Construction
  • Manufacturing
  • Aerospace
  • Marine

Conclusion

Air riveters are versatile tools that can be used for a variety of applications. They are a valuable addition to any workshop or toolbox.
