Single-Size Air-Powered Rivet Nut Tools
Use compressed air to install rivet nuts with less effort than manual tools. Tailored to specific thread sizes, these tools rotate a rivet nut with the exact force needed to collapse it onto your workpiece. They’re smaller and lighter than other powered rivet nut tools, so you can squeeze them into tighter spaces. However, they generate less force, so they’re not recommended for installing nuts into thick materials.
Angle grip tools fit into tighter spaces than pistol grip tools.

Plier-Style Rivet Nut Tools
Install rivet nuts with one hand. Thread the rivet nut onto the mandrel, insert the nut into a drilled hole, and squeeze the handles to secure the nut.
Style B tools include everything you need to install rivet nuts in three common sizes. To install other sizes, you’ll need to add a mandrel or a mandrel and nosepiece set.

Lever-Style Rivet Nut Tools
Use two hands to maximize leverage when installing rivet nuts. These tools require a mandrel and nosepiece. To use, thread the nut onto the mandrel, insert the nut into a drilled hole, and squeeze the handles to secure the nut.
High-leverage tools are about 50% longer than standard tools, giving you extra power for installing rivet nuts. They’re also compatible with rivet studs. Adjust the stroke length to match the size of your rivet nut and workpiece. Unlike tools with a fixed stroke length, you don’t need to manually control the amount of force. You can squeeze the handles all the way shut to install the rivet nut without damaging the rivet or deforming your material. These tools include a mandrel and nosepiece for 1/4"-20 rivet nuts. To install rivet nuts in other sizes, you'll need to use a mandrel and nosepiece set. To install rivet studs, you’ll need a nosepiece.
Tools with knob removal have a spin-to-reverse knob to quickly unthread the mandrel from the installed nut. Tools with plunger removal have a quick-acting, pull-to-remove plunger that unthreads the mandrel from the installed nut.
