The M8 screw connection is already in the tool! This tool worked great!

I wanted to return this tool as the M8 fitting I needed was not in the case. Then I looked at a similar version of this tool and the description noted that the tool came with the M8 bolt from the factory. I double checked the one I ordered and in fact the M8 fitting came pre-installed as well. I used this tool and some stainless steel rivets to repair a license plate bracket on our VW Jetta Mk4. I know I will be using rivet nuts and this tool on many other repairs and projects for years toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Band

Great tool - horrible instructions and that's how I set up the 'hub'

This unit is fairly reliable and works well. But the instructions are very bad. They are common to many tools and don't look like the image in this addon, but I managed to decipher them through trial and error. I also figured out how to use the "working stroke" as described in one of the images. This stroke represents the amount of compression the tool is trying to put on the rivet nut (rivet nut). Once I figure it out, it's a very nice feature. The instructions give you enough information toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Disappear

The tool is reliable. Just know that they will.

Reliable tool. Just note that the rivet protrudes above the surface of whoever you're inserting it into, so you can't screw anything completely flush to it unless you intend to. I work with steel (fabrication/welding) and if I intend to use a rivet nut to join the parts together, I drill a 1/16" pilot hole in both parts when they are temporarily bolted together in their final position to provide a registration hole for later drilling. If you install a 1/4" rivet nut, the hole for the nut willโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Blind rivets
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

3/8 Rivet Nuts will not fit this tool

Installed (4) steel 3/8 Rivet Nuts on the back of my car to attach a piece of MDF to attach my booster to. Apply an initial push, pull back a little, retighten the middle screw, and push some more. Then release and you will no longer be able to tighten the center screw. When you reach this point you are done and the nut is secured. Just make sure the material, which in my case was somewhat thin sheet metal (I have no idea the thickness), is FLAT before installing. Drilling the hole for theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Fasteners
Cons
  • Not sure

Useful and economical.

I purchased this rivet nut setting tool to replace an Astro 1427 hand rivet nut set I was attempting to use and later returned after it broke due to poor build and construction during installation Rivet nut M12 had gone. M12 is the largest size it is designed for and the nut size puts the most stress on the tool during installation. The Q&R product is vastly superior in both design and performance (from my perspective as a retired design engineer). However, several issues not directly relatedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
