Astro Pneumatic Tool PRN1 3/8" Capacity Pneumatic Rivet Nut Setting Kit - Metric & SAE

This rivet nut tool works exactly like it should. Plenty of power, super easy to use, and it handles both metric and SAE sizes without a hitch. The quick unthreading feature is a nice bonus, and it feels solid in the hand. Great value for the price—definitely a 5-star tool in my book.

Works as it should. I all but stopped using nutserts with my old hand held tool. Now I’m back to using them more than ever with the ease and simplicity of this pneumatic tool.

This tool is AWESOME. Very easy to use. Seats the rivnuts perfectly every time. It’s much better than the manual tools and great for long grip range rivnuts. Much faster to use. Love this tool.

Update: I'm updating my review to 4 stars. I'll admit to some user-error with my initial purchase and the instructions do not offer much detail when it comes to dialing in the tool. I had to rely on YouTube and the forums to find out how to set this up correctly. Also, the parts on my first tool were extremely tight. The replacement tool was much easier to work with and setup correctly. Good luck! ------ I may have received a bad unit. My issue has to do with the rear cap. The instructions mention that if the rear cap doesn't spin freely, loosen the #10 bolt and make sure the spring isn't compressed. I followed the instructions, loosening, even removing, the bolt and had no luck spinning the cap. The cap would only spin when there was air in the chamber and the mandrel was retracted. Once you let go of the trigger, the cap was locked and would not spin. The gun was able to securely attach the rivnuts, but I was unable to spin the mandrel with the rear cap to remove the gun from the nut. Fortunately, this was on a test piece of metal and I could spin the workpiece to unthread it. This gun also exhausted oil from the vent and the inside of the carrying case had leaked oil on most of the surfaces. The gun has received good reviews online and my hope is the replacement works much better.

I'm trying to avoid buying more tools but I had a fairly big job that required quite a few rivnuts. Being not so young anymore I didn't want to have to do all the rivnuts bu hand so I went out on a limb and purchased this. It worked perfectly! I knew nothing about setting rivnuts but I found setting it up to be pretty easy, some instructions would be nice though. After well over a hundred rinvuts, I have no complaints and now I am dreaming up how to use rivnuts in other jobs. Very happy with this tool.

Works great I've had no issues use it just about every day in the shop ,I would definitely recommend it

Well priced for home use. Tired it in a work environment. And didn’t hold up as well. Wore it out in 6 months, but my business uses several hundred rivets a day. But for the price I just buy another one.

This tool was well worth it. Solid installs of a hundred or so rivet nuts, no complaints. Glad I bought it. I was surprised to find it difficult if not impossible to get M3 mandrills though. Still looking.

It works great, has a good assortment of mandrels and easily installs steel rivet nuts. The case is another matter, you can’t store the tool in it with an air fitting installed.

El producto es de excelente calidad, trabaja muy bien para lo que requiero. Respecto al estuche pese a que es de excelente calidad, en mi opinión bajo la premisa de que es un equipo portátil no así para una producción en linea es necesario guardarlo constantemente y si este es el objetivo que debe de cubrir el estuche; mi sugerencia es que lo modifiquen para que se pueda almacenar con la válvula de aire y la conexión rápida sin tener que desarmarla cada vez que se pretenda guardar, a efecto de conservar la rosca de la remachadora.

Love it

Muy fácil de utilizar buena calidad de materiales y acabado. Excelente relación calidad precio. Estuche completo
