Pneumatic Rivet Nut Guns Spin / Pull Tools

Pneumatic rivet nut installation tools are ideal for low- to high-volume projects and applications. They allow for a faster rivet nut insertion process, and their use reduces operator fatigue which can often be associated with the use of manual tools. As pneumatic tools, they require a source of clean, regulated, and compressed air for operation. These rivet nut tools can be successfully deployed in a wide range of industrial applications. Monroe-JHP Fasteners offers a range of pneumatic rivet nut guns, all of which are constructed from high-quality materials to ensure optimum performance and reliability.

Our pneumatic riveting nut guns are available in “pull-to-pressure” or “pull-to-stroke” variants. The tool spins the mandrel to thread on the nut and then pulls the mandrel with a hydraulic ram to collapse the nut. The tool will pull to either a set pressure or a set stroke.

Spin-Spin Riveting Nut Gun Versus Spin-Pull Riveting Nut Gun

The spin-spin riveting nut gun and spin-pull riveting nut gun are two of the most common air-powered rivnut guns. The spin-spin tool is less expensive, straightforward, and more simplistic, but it allows more room for human error. It operates by spinning the rivet forward onto the mandrel, compressing it against the material, and reversing it off of the mandrel using the rotational force of the tool.
The spin-pull-to-stroke tool adds an extra step between forward and reversed spinning: the pull. The tool’s stroke is set prior to the spin, so there is less opportunity for error. The spin-pull-spin is more costly, but it is more consistent and safeguards against simple errors.
The appropriate riveting nut gun for your project will be based on specific project requirements. Contact us today and let us help you find the right pneumatic rivet nut gun for your specifications.

Sherex Riveting Nut Gun Spin/Pull Tools

“Pull-to-pressure” or “Pull-to-stroke” are our pneumatic rivet nut gun variants. The tool spins the mandrel to thread the nut and then pulls the mandrel to collapse the nut. The tool will pull to either a set pressure or a set stroke. Monroe-JHP Fasteners offers the following models of rivet nut tools:
  • Flex-5P: Pull-to-pressure
  • Flex-5P-IL: Pull-to-pressure, in-line (special order)
  • Flex-5S: Pull-to-stroke
  • Flex-5S-IL: Pull-to-stroke, in-line (special order)
Each of the pneumatic rivet gun tools listed above provides a high-speed and ergonomically friendly approach to rivet nut installation and is well-suited for use within any production environment. Their solid construction ensures high reliability within even the most challenging environments.

Flex-5P (Pull-to-Pressure) and Flex-5S (Pull-to-Stroke) Pneumatic Rivet Nut Tools

The Flex-5P Sherex River Nut Gun and the Flex-5S Sherex Rivet Nut Gun have many unique features that make them highly useful rivet nut tools, which include:
  • Handle rivet sizes from #6-32 to 3/8-16 and M3 to M10
  • Single-stage trigger
  • Auto reverse with manual reverse bypass
  • Quick-change socket head cap screw mandrel
  • Operates on 90 PSI air pressure
  • 2- to 3-second cycle time
  • Weight of 4.2 lbs.
With Sherex’s conversion kit, the Flex-5P pull-to-pressure pneumatic rivet gun can offer the flexibility of a pull-to-stroke installation. Meanwhile, the Flex-5S Pull-to-Stroke pneumatic rivet gun can offer the flexibility of a pull-to-pressure installation.
They can also be upgraded from the original base tool to different levels of process monitoring that will provide feedback to the operator, ensuring each rivet nut is set properly. The original base tools also offer upgrades such as conversion to an in-line tool and conversion to a split tool with a remote booster.
