Review on πŸ› οΈ Efficient and Reliable Astro Pneumatic Tool 1452 XL Nut/Thread Setting Hand Riveter Kit 1/2" Capacity for Professional Use by Flex Graham

Revainrating 5 out of 5

NOT HEAVY ENOUGH in riveting machines

My first experience with this tool and not very good. The first 3/8 x 16 nut I tried to pull out broke this tool. Upon examining what was broken, I found that part #12 (1452-12) of the activity set was broken on the swing arm where the handle was attached. I called Astro Pneumatic Tool Company and in fact they are closed until January 2nd, 2019. I think after January 2nd I will know what to do as directed in their warranty to call 800 for instructions on how to handle the warranty, either replace the tool or repair the tool. The time will show. Otherwise it is a complete kit and has everything that is advertised. Good set for the price but if I leave it on it will never pull anything past 5/16". My box will have a better tool for heavier rivet nuts. This one is ONLY for aluminum nuts!

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • I won't say anything
