Hand Sets

Semi-tubular rivets are curled over to hold two or more pieces of material together. The easiest way, but most labor intensive, to set a rivet is to use a handset. Handsets were developed by New Jersey Rivet Company, LLC and are used to quickly curl a rivet over. They can be used with a hammer (while providing support to the head of the rivet) or can be adapted to a kick or arbor press. Please note that the end size will vary with the diameter of the rivet to be set.
