Review on 🔧 HIFESON Rivet Nut Tool Hand Riveter with Step Drill Accessory for Metric and SAE Steel Nuts M3 M4 M5 M6 M8 M10 10-24 1/4-20 5/16-18 3/8-16 by Guillo Tilden

This is the restricted seating ticket only. I have a nut installer but it takes up a lot of space in front of the hole to use the installer tool. If you're short on space, these are the ones you should aim for. This is actually a great idea, I've tried the bolts, washers and nuts trick in the past and always found it so frustrating and time consuming. They make the job much easier and faster. Comes with a full set of metric and imperial tools and rivets to get you started. The kit even includes a step drill for drilling holes. You just need to provide a wrench and allen wrench. The highlight here is the special nut, which is freely rotatable on the inside. The nut is wide (about 2-3 times the size of a regular nut) and easily fits a wrench without slipping. A hex bolt can give you good leverage if you use a long shank hex wrench. Since you hand tighten it, you can get a good feel for when it's fully installed, whereas with a riveting tool it's difficult to gauge whether you've fully installed it or worse, overtightened and possibly damaged it. I wouldn't use them for a ton of nuts, but if you're only making a few this is a good option.
