Review on πŸ”§ Tool Aid S&G 19400 Rivet Tool: The Ultimate Solution for Plastic Rivets by Ryan Nguyen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Sturdy construction - Easy to use - Good price

Was surprised by the solid construction of this tool - expected something plastic but this one is well assembled metal tool. I've had no trouble getting it to work, and I've had no trouble with cut pins getting stuck in the gripper cylinder. But I suspect some of the issues others have reported are due to the size of the plastic rivets used. However, I had no such problem. I noticed that on the first pull the tool pulled the pin almost all the way out and I had to reposition and pull again, causing the clasp to tighten and the pin to break off. I've posted photos of the size of this tool so you can see it's not tiny. When using the wheel arch liner on my 2013 Jeep GC-Overland to reinstall, I had to either remove the wheels or rotate them entirely to make room for the tool - I chose to just rotate the wheel and not remove the wheels Overall satisfied with the purchase.

Pros
  • Package dimensions: 4.8L x 15.2W x 25.4H (cm)
Cons
  • Some difficulties
