What exactly does a rivet nut gun do? I'm used to standard pop rivets.?

This tool installs threaded inserts, or 'rivet nuts', into thin sheet metal or panels where you can't access the back. It lets you create a strong, threaded hole so you can fasten components with a standard bolt or screw.

What size rivet nuts does this tool come with heads for?

The kit includes the interchangeable mandrels and nosepieces needed to set five common metric rivet nut sizes. You'll get everything for M3, M4, M5, M6, and M8 nuts.

How do I know I've squeezed the handles enough to set the nut correctly?

This tool has a maximum working stroke of 9mm, which is the distance it travels to compress the nut. You'll feel a distinct increase in resistance once the rivet nut is fully collapsed and properly set in the material.

Applications - Attaching accessories onto vehicle body panels, firewalls, or custom brackets. - Putting together metal frames, racks, or enclosures where you can't reach the back to place a nut. - Fixing a stripped or damaged thread by drilling out the hole and putting in a new rivet nut.
