The explosive power of compressed air has been utilized for a wide variety of different tools, but few of them make such a natural choice as an air riveter. These simple tools use a standard compressed air supply to provide the most efficient riveting system on the market. If you are looking for a solution that will allow you to take advantage of the lighter weight and flexibility of an air powered tool, while also offering the kind of precision that you demand from a top quality rivet gun, then a high quality model such as the Chicago Pneumatic CPT883 Air Riveter is ideal for you.

The basic technology that underpins an air riveter is extremely elegant, and the tool is unencumbered by any unnecessary add ons. It has been put together as simply as possible to ensure the best possible efficiency in use, and the easiest operation possible.

The key to effective riveting performance is power. This is where the air riveter really comes into its own. When connected to a standard air supply, an air riveter can apply incredible amounts of pressure to a rivet, and force it through incredibly tough materials. Indeed the CPT883 Air riveter is capable of delivering an incredible 985lb/Ft of traction power when used at full capacity. A vacuum assistance system boosts the capability of the tool even further than usual, to give you a piece of equipment that will not let you down.

For the $412 or so that the Chicago Pneumatic CPT883 costs, you get a highly advanced piece of equipment that is intended to be completely reliable in use, and comes with all the accessories that you will need in order to get the most out of your tool, and minimize any down time when your Air Riveter is out of action.

In order to give you the best possible range of operation from your air riveter, this model comes with a choice of 3 different nosepieces that can all be stored in the handy hollow storage cap for easy access as needed. With 1/8”, 5/32” and 3/16” nose pieces, the Chicago Pneumatic air riveter will be able to take on most of the jobs that you are likely to throw at it, and thanks to its high quality construction and reliability, will not let you down in use.

While the Chicago Pneumatic CPT883 air hydraulic riveter is all about delivering as much power as you need, the control of the power and protection of the materials you are working with are not overlooked, and the tool comes complete with a rubber boot on the head that protects the surface that you are working with, as well as soaking up some of the impact in order to prolong the life of the air riveter, and reduce the likelihood of sustaining serious vibration damage in use.

The CPT883 Air Riveter takes industry standard 3/16” rivets that you would find in most applications, and thanks to its high power will be able to be used on most automotive jobs, such as panel replacement, and interior work. This tool has an excellent stroke length of 11/16”, meaning that it should make easy work of most panel jobs, and can even come in useful when working on tougher riveting jobs.

Thanks to the vibration and heavy weight of traditional rivet guns, riveting is one of the most tiring tasks that a mechanical engineer ever has to carry out, but thanks to the lighter weight and ergonomic considerations of the air riveter when compared to alternatives, users will find that they are able to work for longer without getting as tired or suffering from the same levels of fatigue as they would with conventional tools, making the air riveter a great productivity booster in most cases.
