how well will it work on 3/16 stainless steel rivets
335587
Worked perfectly. Used it over 1000 times assembling lockers. Pull the trigger, reset the gun on the rivet, pull the trigger, etc and voila, it works. Takes a couple of trigger pulls, but I had no problem with steel rivets. Have not tried stainless steel yet, but am confident it will do the job.

I have not found a rivet that it won't work with. They all seem to work great.

it worked very well. I used stainless steel rivets on my project. Had to pull the trigger twice, other than that it was great

This thing is so powerful you won't even know you actually used a rivet......aluminum, steel it doesn't matter.....Michael

I can't say from experience, but it should. Amazon has a good return policy, and it's very affordable. We use ours everyday and it's still going strong.

I haven't tried it on stainless steel (other than for stuck on bits). I primarily use the Ringer XL on my cast iron or cast steel. But I do know that a bit of Bar Keeper's Friend with a dishcloth has worked wonders on my stainless steel pots for stains/spots.

Nutserts, rivnuts, and rivet nut inserts are all of the same depending on the material they are made from. So I would say yes as I have used aluminum and steel with this tool. Haven't tried stainless. This tool works great for light applications, but after several uses the threads on the mandrel will wear out and need to be replaced. Hope this helps.

I used it on leaking rivets on an aluminum runabout. I used a DISPOSABLE brush and wore rubber gloves. I put on the recommended two coats and it worked very well. I think it would be too thick to roll on...

Hi Sam, I had a similar situation with mine. I noticed it was getting a little loose. I opened the jaws of the pliers all the way and placed the head of the rivet on my vise and used a large centerpunch and "re-peened" the rivet. Since it is a stainless steel rivet it worked very well and hasn't loosened back up since then. You just need to make sure the centerpunch diameter is large enough so it won't just hit the center of the rivet. Hope that helped Kevin

It will if it is ferritic and will not if it is austenitic stainless. The paint on my son's Melissa and Doug letter/number set chipped off the first time he played with them, so I do not recommend these.

I have been using it to peel aluminum sheet off of damaged coils. Very controllable and user friendly. The long barrel makes it easier to hold and control. I think it would be ok but have not tried it on rivets. One tough machine. Hope this helps.

Excellent. I have welded 3/8 successfully, but I am a long time experienced welder and know how to make the most of the heat. Welds 1/4" easily. It will blow through the 24 or 22 gauge on highest setting if you're not careful.

Mine is on a steel cabinet, the thread left behind the nut is 13/16th so 13/16th would be a safe bet.

I used this kit to break my 525 OEM DID chain and installed a 520 RK conversion kit that I riveted. No master link on the OEM, so I filed (didn't have a grinder on hand) rivet heads down and they came right out. You have to have some patience and make sure the holes and pins remain lined up during the process, but no issues otherwise.

Yes, it works fine on those calibers. I use it on .22, .380, 9mm, .357/.38, .44 magnum, and .45. All my revolvers are stainless steel.

Not sure what your question is.This gun will rivet up to 1/4" rivets and it works like a charm!

It depends on what size and material rivet is required. If the rivet you need or want to use fits one of the heads the machine is well made enough to install it. Stainless, aluminum, copper rivet? What is needed and what size? Then, when you know that, see how it fits the specs for the rivet tool. It is a well made, strong tool and does what it's specs call for. You have to answer the other questions before anyone could answer the question you asked.

yes it will work if you know tork specs don't want to over tighten and strip threads

I have not used it for more than One half inch thick steel but it worked great. I'm sure it would handle much thicker material.

It does very well on 6010. I have used 3/32 and 1/8. this is a great welder.
