The Beadsmith EZ Rivet - Piercing and Setting Tool - Includes 1/16" T-bar Screws - Pierces Metal and Sets Rivets and Eyelets - Domed Base for Use with Rings - Ideal for Sheet Metal Up to 18 Gauge
EZ RIVET: This sturdy, metalworking tool pierces metal and sets semi-tubular rivets and eyelets. Many jewelry makers use riveting as a cold forging process. Since the metals used in jewelry are often very soft and sensitive, riveting allows jewelry makers to join together separate components without exposing them to the heat necessary for soldering.
PIERCING: The EZ-Rivet features two 1/16” T-bar screws, which can be switched out for a different size. (3/32” kit sold separately.) To use, place your metal blank or sheet metal under the piercing tool. Turn the screw clockwise until the metal is pierced. Turn counterclockwise to raise the T-bar and release your piece.
TIPS AND TRICKS: Our piercing and setting tool works best with metal sheets up to 18 gauge. There is a deep recess for extended 7/8” (22mm) reach. The domed base was designed for use with rings and other curved items. Also included in an allen key, which is helpful when turning the T-bar.
GREAT FOR ALL SKILL LEVELS: These metalworking tools are easy to use, making them great for beginners and professionals alike. DIY hobby crafters will discover that with some experimenting, designs can be transformed into beautiful works of art, while jewelry designers and metalsmiths will appreciate the accuracy to create a professional, one-of-a-kind piece.
