FAQs

What type of rivets can this riveter use?

This Draper Hand Riveter (27847) is designed for aluminium alloy blind rivets in sizes 2.4mm, 3.2mm, 4.0mm, and 4.8mm.

How many rivets are included?

The kit comes with an assortment of approximately 60 aluminium alloy rivets.

Is this riveter suitable for professional, heavy-duty use?

This riveter is primarily designed for DIY users and light to medium-duty tasks. For continuous heavy-duty professional use, a pneumatic or heavier-duty manual riveter might be more appropriate.

How do I change the nozzle size?

To change the nozzle, unscrew the current nozzle from the head of the riveter and screw on the desired size. Ensure it is securely tightened before use.

What is the frame made of?

The frame is made of blue enamelled pressed steel for durability.

Can I use steel rivets with this tool?

While the tool is designed for aluminium alloy rivets, it may be able to set small steel rivets (e.g., 2.4mm or 3.2mm), but performance may vary and it's not its primary intended use. Always check the rivet manufacturer's recommendations.

Troubleshooting

Riveter not setting rivets properly

Ensure you are using the correct nozzle size for the rivet diameter. Check that the rivet mandrel is fully inserted into the riveter's jaws. Verify the rivet is properly seated in the nozzle. For larger rivets, ensure you are applying sufficient, steady force.

Jaws not gripping the rivet mandrel

Clean the jaws thoroughly to remove any debris or lubricant. If jaws appear worn, they may need replacement, though this is uncommon for typical DIY use.

Handle action is stiff

Apply a small amount of light machine oil to the pivot point and any moving jaw components. Work the handles back and forth to distribute the oil. Wipe away any excess.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sturdy construction for DIY applications.
  • Includes multiple nozzle sizes for versatility.
  • Comfortable grip handles for extended use.
  • Comes with a starter pack of rivets.

Cons

  • The included rivet count may be insufficient for large projects.
  • Primarily suited for light to medium-duty DIY tasks, not heavy industrial use.
  • May require significant force for larger diameter rivets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No complex setup is required. Select the appropriate nozzle size for your blind rivets by screwing it into the riveter's head. Insert a rivet into the selected nozzle. Place the rivet's mandrel into the material you wish to join, ensuring the pieces are aligned.

Compatibility: This riveter is compatible with aluminium alloy blind rivets in the following sizes: 2.4mm, 3.2mm, 4.0mm, and 4.8mm. It is not designed for solid rivets or larger diameter rivets.

Care: After use, clean any dust or debris from the jaws and nozzle area. Apply a small amount of light oil to the pivot point and moving parts occasionally to ensure smooth operation. Store the riveter in a dry place to prevent rust. Periodically check that the nozzles are securely attached.
