Hand Rivet Nut Setter Kit 803pcs

This Klein Tools kit supplies 803 pieces for setting 1/4 inch grommets. It includes 400 gold and silver eyelets, 400 washers, and a handheld manual press. The pliers feature carbon steel jaws with plastic-impregnated handles for a comfortable grip during light-duty work.

Suited for leather, paper and thin tarps

Ideal for crafters adding decorative eyelets to materials 1-3mm thick such as leather, cardstock, paper or thin tarps. Not suitable for foam board, fabric, cloth or any heavy-duty applications where the tool could be damaged or fail to close properly.

6.4mm inside diameter eyelets

Each metal eyelet has a 6.4mm inside diameter, a 12mm outside diameter and a ~3mm flange width. A pilot hole must be punched before setting; the grommets cannot puncture material on their own.

Questions about this item

Do the 800 metal eyelets and 400 washers need periodic replacement or can they be reused?

The 800 eyelets and 400 washers are single-use fasteners; once set they cannot be removed and reused, so you replace them by buying another kit when stock runs low.

What material thickness stops the carbon-steel jaws from closing fully during sustained use?

Materials thicker than 3 mm prevent the jaws from closing properly and risk bending the pliers' handle, so 3 mm is the practical limit for continuous work.

How hot do the chrome-plated carbon-steel jaws get and how much hand force is needed when the tool runs all day?

The manual pliers generate no heat; they rely on hand force through a redirecting transmission, and excessive force can bend the plastic-impregnated handles.
