National Rivet Precision Machines for Small Rivets

Both models feature a nose block assembly which can be removed and replaced with a unit tooled for a different rivet.

Like all National Riveters, these models feature the Advancing Jaw Carrier to reduce jaw and driver wear and ensure dependable feeding of rivets.

Model B is electric, with a 1/6 H.P., 1140 RPM motor. The crank pin and connecting rod mechanism gives this model a gentle but powerful setting force.

Model BA is air operated, making it the ideal machine for riveting fragile parts, brittle materials and parts that vary in thickness, without distortion or breakage.

Model BA rivet setting pressure is adjustable down to 20 P.S.I.

Approximate cycle time for the B is 1/3 second; 1 second for the BA.

Each model can be customized to your specific needs and requirements.
