Our heavy duty rivet nut hand installation tool is designed for small production work and prototyping or larger sized rivet nuts. There is a very quick change between thread sizes using “interchangeable head-sets”. Use two hands to operate the lever action, which helps create a high degree of mechanical advantage for greater installation forces on the nutserts.

  • Mandrel & Anvil required for each thread size.  These are considered consumables of the tool, please keep backup(s) on hand!
  • Please consult us on your exact fastener and application to assure you invest in the most capable tool for the job.
    • Note:  Material type of fastener is critical.  Example: Install tool may be set up for a 1/2-13 rivet nut, but tool is only capable of installing a soft aluminum 1/2-13 rivet nut, and can not install a harder steel or hardest stainless steel 1/2-13 rivet nut.  A heavier duty tool would be required to install the harder steel or hardest stainless steel 1/2-13 rivet nut. Call us with questions!

The 140-2000 series tool (including 140-2000, 140-2000M, 140-2000-PLUS, and 140-2000M-PLUS) may be able to install the following:

  • Thin-wall Rivet Nuts: 6-32 up to 1/2-13 & M4-M12.
  • Steel Rivet Nuts: 1/4-20 up to 5/16-18 & M6-M8.
  • Stainless Steel Rivet Nuts: 1/4-20 & M6.
  • PLUSNUTS® (All Materials): 6-32 up to 1/2-13 (M4-M10).
    • This may require the purchase of special non-stock mandrels for your nutserts. Thin gauge material may require the user to double stroke the tool. Our experts are here to help; just ask!
