Short-Arm Threaded Riv Nut Tool Set
Overview
This is a purpose-built hand tool for setting threaded rivet nuts in sheet metal and structural assemblies. The 320mm short-arm design balances leverage with workspace accessibility—ideal for confined areas where longer tools create friction losses. The set covers the most common industrial sizes (M3, M4, M5, M6, M8, M10), making it suitable for automotive sub-assembly, HVAC ducting, aerospace panel work, and general metal fabrication. For higher-volume production or larger sizes, consider pairing this with a long-arm rivet nut insertion tool or a pneumatic nut riveter for M4–M12 range work.
Key Features
- Chrome Vanadium forged arms – Resistant to fatigue and flexing under cyclic loading; maintains dimensional stability over thousands of cycles
- Wear-resistant nozzles – Hardened steel nose pieces prevent galling and extend tool life across repeated size changes
- Double-handle ergonomic design – Textured blue grips reduce hand fatigue during repetitive insertion; balanced lever geometry minimizes operator strain
- Indexed adjustment dial – Gear-style selector ensures precise mandrel engagement; prevents cross-threading and inconsistent seating
- Six interchangeable mandrels and nozzles – M3, M4, M5, M6, M8, M10mm coverage handles 95% of standard threaded riv nut applications
- Knurled nose cap – Secures mandrel and nozzle assembly; prevents accidental disassembly during use
- Supplied spanner wrench – Enables quick nozzle changes and on-site mandrel adjustment
- Hard-shell carry case with molded storage – Protects components during transport; reduces lost-part incidents and maintains inventory control
Business Advantages for Distributors
- High-margin consumable accessory category – Nozzles and mandrels require periodic replacement; repeat orders from end-users
- Complete essential set – No additional nozzle purchases required for common industrial sizes; reduces customer contact friction and increases first-purchase satisfaction
- Compact footprint – 320mm length fits standard tool racks and van storage; appeals to mobile technicians and small shops with limited bench space
- Brand-neutral white-label positioning – Rebranding ready for distributor house brands; supports margin expansion without OEM restrictions
- Cross-sell opportunity – Perfect entry-level tool for shops expanding into light structural assembly; leads to upsells for pneumatic or hydraulic systems on larger jobs

Why Stock This Set
Threaded rivet nut insertion is a non-negotiable process in metal fabrication, HVAC assembly, and automotive sub-tier manufacturing. This tool set delivers the precision and durability required for high-volume work without the capital investment of pneumatic or hydraulic systems. The compact 320mm arm design outperforms longer tools in tight assembly spaces—a competitive edge for shops handling panel and bracket work. Stock it as a core hand tool offering; the repeat nozzle business alone justifies shelf allocation.
