The new gearing system X-Force is expected to provide three times more power for setting, which means less effort is required to complete each setting.
According to Scell-it UK, the mechanism works by multiplying the user’s input force, making it possible to install rivets and rivnuts in a fraction of the time it would take with traditional hand tools.
The compact design means it can fit into tight spaces, making it suitable for working in confined areas.
For rivets, there is the R300 which can set standard and structural rivets of sizes 3.0mm to 6.4mm, in aluminium, steel or stainless Steel. It measures 125mm x 375mm and weighs 1.2kg.
For rivnuts, the N300 has a range of M4 to M10 in aluminium, steel and stainless steel. The N300-T model is also available with a ‘quick unscrew’ attachment to allow a faster release from the inserted rivnut. It is 125mm by 405mm (450mm N300-T) and weighs 1.4kg (1.62kg N300-T). This is combined with the ‘X-Force’ gearing system to provide a quick insertion.
Instruction videos are available for the N300 and R300 tools on the Scell-it channel and all tools come with a mounting key and an additional set of jaws. They are also available in kit form which includes a carry case containing a quantity of popular rivets or rivnuts.
