Review on Astro Pneumatic Tool 4980 0.498" Shank Heavy-Duty Air Hammer/Riveter by Matthew Henderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Look No Further - Rivets

This is what you need, don't settle for less. I loosened a rusty fuel pump ring in 0.25 seconds and removed some ball joints in about 5 seconds. I used to find working in the automotive field physically and mentally demanding because I was frustrated for hours. Any of these jobs would cost me hours and ruin my day. Now that I have the 'big bad', it's not really impressive - it literally takes me longer to find a chisel in my garage (mind you, I know exactly what it is) than the time it takes me need to use this tool to get the job done. For the past week, my truck has been jacked up while I banged away with a hammer and screwdriver in anger and frustration. I was so excited when the big bastard arrived that I walked outside in my sweatpants with no intention of actually doing anything just to light this thing up. I got more done in about six seconds with this tool than I could in a full day of cursing and using a hammer. Conclusion: Everyone should experience the joy and comfort of riding like a pro, in pajamas and over coffee. .

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • A few little things
