We call it a Rivet Nut. It didn't look staged Steve, lol. You got better as you went. Watch out for flying objects by the way! I don't have a tool like that. I do have a hand riveter somewhere from the 80's. Stay real Steve!
HAHAHA no staged phony baloney crap on my channel eh .
@@SteveRobReviews I can tell! HAHAHA!
I wonder how it would do using the screwdriver setting on the drill. You could mess around with torque settings. Just an idea 🤔
Good idea if you could figure out all the differences between nutters. 👍
How's she goin'? Reviews are good to an extent. It's like reviews on things from Amazon, I only look at the 1 star ones to try and get a real idea about what the product is like. Thanks for this review Steve. I still think this would be a good tool to have in the shop. Take care!!
Hi Mike
Yes this is a handy tool to have for sure. Reviews on Amazon are very suspect as the opinions have such a huge difference many times. Everything is sold on advertising techniques and youtube is full of the same . Cheers bud 👍
The real deal! Nothing staged! You want the truth? You get the truth right here with Steve Rob Reviews! Drops the 🎤
HahahaHa ya think I got the point across Doug . Take Care 👍
Great honest review! The manufacturer should really make it with a removable handle like SDS drills.
Thanks 👍 Now that's a great idea , much better than my vise grips .
The real deal review (as always). I remember when you first got the kit. Thanks for the update. 👍
Hi Dave
Good memory 👍
I think you’re supposed to hold it in reverse just for the initial breaking action. Then let it go and you can run it back out.
There is a learning curve to get it to work well but overall it does the job well.
The tool definitely needs some improvement, for the bigger nutserts I would use my heavy duty go to the Dewalt Hammer Drill it has much more power than the driver drill . I can see a bit of a problem with that tool because if the nutsert is to loose it will spin when torquing a bolt in it. I also wonder how long the tool may last as there have been reports of the socket wrench version of the tool breaking. Also the power of the Hammer drill will help it back out easier. Note on Dewalt tools they make their drills and drivers in 5 different torque power ratings the only way to tell witch one is witch is to read the label on the tools Why they don`t advertise that fact is beyond me.
Good observation bud 👍
As with any tool, the effectiveness is always how you use it and where you use it, and cf course the monkey behind it. I have a Kobe tool that is very similar that I rarely use a drill with it as really that is for a production environment where the tool is specifically set up to give consistent results. For most of my jobs it simply isn't worth breaking out the drill and setting it up with the correct torque (not shown here), I just use a 1/4" ratchet and set the up to M6 Rivnut by feel and for M8 and M10 rivnuts I use a Land Rover pattern tool that is also tightened by feel. Looking at the Rivnut flange indentations I suspect that the Rivnut is set with too high a torque that then constricts the barrel, which grips the tool. Also, the holes for the Rivnuts are too big and you should have to push the Rivnut into the hole that has an interference fit.
I would also question why you would need a Rivnut set into a piece of 20g/22g steel that is far too thin for most applications and must have an effect on the Rivnut installation
Works great for me when needed.
I can done see me spinning around with a flip ~! LOL
HAHAHA yes so always have the camera on to capture it .
I've had the manual version of that on my Amazon wish list for years. The thing I like about your version is the size. Nice little compact case that fits everywhere.
What's the maximum thickness you can use the inserts on?
Hi Bruce
I'd say about 1/8 and thats not within their specs as these are gauged for mostly sheet metals.
I ask because I almost bought one a few ago when I was changing a lower control arm and the captive nut inside the frame broke loose. I wasn’t sure how strong the rivnut would be and ended up cutting an opening in the frame to get at the nut
@Bruce L. The steel ones are real strong but everyone I have used does spin if you try to remove a bolt that is rusted badly as it will not allow it to be removed .
That makes sense
Real reviews by a real user that can say the company is "not a sponsor!" Great video as usual Steve! The place I come for "REAL" reviews!!!!
Hi Mike
I did make it as real as possible since some out there are producing the staged buy it now videos, bought and paid for 😅
I've had some of the same failure problems with the old manual tool when I crank on it too hard too. Thanks for your honest reviews Steve
Hi Lloyd
Yes a lot of tools shown on youtube seem to work flawlessly until one actually uses it without all the staging and fancy editing 😉
Lol had to laugh in beginning. But its a great tool but you did a great job showing its fault. I like these reviews not the edit perfect videos. Thanks steve
Jason I can spot a staged bought and paid for review in first 30 seconds :)
@@SteveRobReviews Lol yeah for sure. Usually starts out claiming its next to the miracle water. Lol
A handy tool for sure 👍👍
It's a good tool but not great .
Nothing is ever perfect! I think for me the biggest thing about that tool is many times you just couldn't get the tool to fit in the spot you need to get too! But hey, in editing we can always make it work perfectly very time 😉
Thanks Steve🍻
Hi Marc
On youtube some make a wealthy career showing how to buy a product more than using it as the whole idea behind some channels on youtube is all staged for sales , sales and more sales 😀
I have to admit when you said some of you were chuckling I was one of them. I guess it is ok for what it is. But I would be fired at work if it took me this long just to put in 5 nutserts at work. My company can be cheap so we just have the manual insert tool. We don't do very many of these a year but dang it wouldn't take that long. I have always know that you have shot straight Steve and that's what I really like about your reviews. Thanks Buddy
Thanks Billy
I'm not an expert at anything and I say so including this youtube stuff :)
Keeping it real 👍
Yes sir and then some . Cheers Joe
As seen on tv VS real life
Just like a Seinfeld episode , all my videos are really and spectacular 🤣😅
How's she goin'? I have never owned a scan tool Steve. This looks like a good one to start with eh!! Thanks for posting and take care!!
Hi Mike
The most basic scan tool is a great start . Just like a multimeter it's figuring it out and how to apply the readings . Not so easy :)
we used those nut on our new truck
Hi Keith
They work great but if you need to remove the bolts make sure the bolt doesn't rust because the nutsert will turn most times trying to remove it . 😉
@@SteveRobReviews good to know we just started to use them
No mention of how much torque cab be applied to the fasteners of various sizes before the nutsert thread strips
No torque specifications were stated in the instructions. It's stop after you feel it's tight .
🤣
