Rodcraft is introducing its new professional products in the family of pneumatic riveters for blind rivets and rivet nuts.

 

The range consists of three completely new riveters and a blind rivet gun from the previous range. With its performance spectrum, the series covers all classic requirements for riveting in vehicle service and body shop applications as well as in steel and metal construction. The new models will be available from distributors and in the online shop from mid-April 2021.

A very useful and convenient new features compared to the previous models is for example the integrated vacuum function of the RC6738 and RC6748 models which helps to keep the blind rivets in the cone, before the user presses the trigger. This simplifies the work in a vertical position.

With setting forces of 8.8 to 21.0 kilonewtons, the RC6700, RC6738 and RC6748 blind riveters are suitable for blind or BULB rivets of all common materials, such as copper, aluminium or stainless steel, in sizes from 2.4 to 7.8 millimetres. The automatic rivet mandrel extraction, the cold-insulating composite handle and the low-vibration operation with kickback guarantee comfortable, ergonomic and safe handling of the tools.High-quality workmanship and materials, such as the robust aluminium cylinder material, ensure a long product life under rough conditions.

The new RC6758 rivet nut setter occupies a special position in the model family. With its high setting force of up to 24 kilonewtons, rivet nuts in sizes M3 to M12 can be processed. Unlike many other models available on the market, the Rodcraft tool has an automatic function to thread and unthread the rivet nuts. This function speeds up the setting of rivet nuts and at the same time protects the threads of the rivets through purely axial pressing. In addition, the tool has a large reversing switch on the back if manual unthreading is necessary, for example due to an adjustment correction of the setting stroke.
