Corded and Cordless Rivet Tools

36 products · Grinders and Rotary Tools

Corded and cordless rivet tools replace the manual lever: a motor pulls the rivet mandrel until it breaks, so blind rivets can be set in volume on sheet metal, sections and light metalwork with little effort. They are useful for anyone who rivets every day, on site as well as in the workshop.

What you will find in the collection

  • Cordless rivet tools from Makita, Milwaukee, DeWalt and Bossong, including compact and brushless versions, in some cases sold without battery (bare tool).
  • Other rivet tools under the A.M.E.S. brand.
  • Accessories and spare parts: extensions, jaws, nosepieces and replacement mandrel guides for the different rivet diameters.

How to choose

Start from the largest rivet diameter you need to set (for example 4.8 or 6.4 mm) and the rivet material. Then consider the battery voltage and capacity, the weight of the tool and whether the batteries are compatible with those you already have. For spare parts, always check the exact model of rivet tool they are intended for.

Frequently asked questions: Corded and Cordless Rivet Tools
What is an electric or battery rivet gun used for?

A battery rivet gun replaces the hand lever: a motor pulls the rivet mandrel until it snaps off, so pull-stem rivets are set in succession. It is useful for sheet, profiles and light metalwork, where many rivets must be fitted with little effort. It is designed for those who rivet every day.

Which rivet diameter can I use with my rivet gun?

The rivet diameter determines the nosepiece and the set to use. The range includes sets for rivets of 2.4, 3.2 and 6.0 mm, and nosepieces for diameters from 2.4 to 4.8 mm. Choose the nosepiece and the jaw according to the rivet, and check compatibility with your rivet gun model.

What is the difference between the M12, M18 and LXT versions?

M12 rivet guns are more compact, while M18 models are the choice for more demanding jobs. Makita LXT rivet guns use batteries from the LXT line. The choice also depends on the battery you already own and the diameter of the rivets you need to set. Batteries from different lines are not interchangeable.

How do I use a rivet gun safely?

Wear protective glasses, as a broken mandrel can be thrown out. Check that the nosepiece and jaws suit the rivet and are firmly fixed. Keep your fingers away from the mandrel during closing and remove the battery before changing accessories or jaws.

Do I need to buy the battery too?

Some rivet guns in the range are sold without a battery, as the tool only. Before buying, check whether you already have a battery of the same line, such as M12, M18 or LXT, because batteries are not interchangeable between lines. The product data sheet always states whether the battery is included.

Which rivet gun brands and models are available?

The range includes Makita LXT battery rivet guns, such as the DRV150 and DRV250, and Milwaukee M12 and M18 Fuel models, with guns for Huck pull-stem bolts. There are also Ingco models and brands such as DeWalt and Bossong mentioned in the range description. Compare models according to the rivet and battery you need.

Who uses rivet guns and for which jobs?

They are used by metal fabricators, sheet metal workers, plant installers and those fitting panels, profiles or sheet. In the workshop they serve to fix parts that cannot be welded, and on site to join light structures. They suit those who rivet often, as they reduce fatigue compared with a hand lever.
