INTRODUCTION
When selecting a tool from this catalog be guided by the requirements
of the workpiece and the
largest fastener or rivet to be installed. Tool selection is normally based upon access to the
workpiece and maximum power required. The maximum power capability of each tool is
specified along with a photograph and other pertinent data.
Tool requirements for riveting are determined by rivet diameter and material type such as
copper, steel, titanium, aluminum, monel, etc., and whether solid or semi-tubular. In the case of
captive hardware such as studs, threaded inserts, floaters, stand ofts, etc., diameter and
material type must be considered.
General Pneumatic Tools are light, easy to hold and simple to operate. All are essentially
noiseless expect for the muffled exhaust. All General Pneumatic Tools function as squeezers,
not as hammers. This squeezing action whether in a hand held or stationary tool is deemed
necessary to produce the vital cold metal flow essential for proper retention of captive
hardware. These same characteristics
assure uniformity required to meet the rigid specifications of MIL-403B.
Whether your requirements
are for the military, aerospace, airline

Elsewhere in this catalog you will find general information pertaining to rivets of all types used
throughout the United States. In addition we have included complete information on tooling for
these rivets.

How To Preset The Tool For A
Specific Rivet
EXAMPLE: To squeeze a flat head rivet 1/8th inch dia. X 1/4 inch long STEP NO.1: Insert 2 flat squeezer sets in the tool. Apply air and measure the gap between sets
at end of stroke. This gap should always measure slightly less than the length of the rivet. Flat
squeezer sets are graduated in 1/16 inch increments from 1/8th thru 1 inch in length. All other
squeezer sets are graduated in 1/8th inch increments.
Make a trial squeeze on scrap material. If more squeeze is needed, add a shim under the head of
either set. Hardened shims are available for this purpose in three increments: 1/64th inch,
1/32nd inch, and 1/16th inch. This system allows adjustment between squeezer set increments.
The gap at end of stroke is important, if too small the tool will stall. Keeping in mind that full
power is obtained during the final1/16th
inch of RAM travel.
Because the tool cannot squeeze beyond the end of travel it is therefore possible to squeeze
even the tiniest rivet or fastener precisely without damage to the workpiece. It's all in the gap
adjustment.
POPULAR RIVET HEAD STYLES & STANDARD
Example: AN-470 - AD-4-.8
AN - When these two letters
precede numbers, they
indicate Army and Navy
specifications.
MS - When these two letters
precede numbers, they
indicate Military
Standard specifications.
470 - The first three numbers
ind icate the type of head:
470 = universal head,
430 = round head, etc.
AD - Letters following head
type code indicate
material: A = 1100 (2S)
aluminum, AD =2117-T4
(A17ST) , etc.
4 - First numbers after
material code indicate
diameter of rivet in
32nds of an inch.
4::: 4/32" or 1/8",
12 = 12/32" or 3/8", etc.
8 - Last numbers indicate
length of rivet in 16ths
of an inch: 8 = 8/16" or
1/2",10 = 10/16" or
5/8", etc.

It may be helpful to know just
how much a rivet should be
squeezed. This is general information and may not apply
in specific cases. (Information
on semi-tubulars
is listed
separately). The upset or shop
head should fall within the
limits of our table.

In this catalog, we have listed correct tooling (squeezer sets) for all American made rivets. A single item is referred to as a
set. Two sets are required to upset any rivet. Normally one will be flat and the other will be selected to properly nest the
head of the rivet. If there is any question as to the proper tooling check the MS or AN number. If this is not available
compare the head shape with the drawings.

SELECTING A YOKE
C-YOKE NOMENCLATURE
Four factors will determine how to select the
proper yoke for your application.
1.
The gap dimension
("B") on our yoke
drawing, the length of your rivet determines minimum gap.
2.
The reach (dimension "A") edge distance
determines reach.
3.
Allowances must be made for rivet material
such as aluminum, brass, copper, steel,
stainless steel, monel and whether solid or
semi-tubular. The rivet diameter directly
affects your choice of yoke.

Tool power rating (maximum

compressive
Because of these variables ouryokes are manufactured as either light or heavy duty types.
All General Pneumatic yokes are made of
chromemoly steel, precision machined, heat
treated and ground for long life.
In general it's best to select a yoke with the
smallest gap and shortest reach consistant with
your application. Go as light as possible. It
saves both weight and money.
As the rivet length increases it is necessary to
increase the gap of the yoke. Consult our chart
for gap requirements based on rivet length.

It can be readily seen that the minimum
STANDARD
yoke
gap must always be one inch greater than the
longest rivet. This allows for two 1/4 inch high
rivet sets and a 1/16th squeeze on the rivet plus
the stroke of the tool.

With Standard 3" Reach Yoke.
The 6000 CHP - this is our most powerful hand tool. Employing a twin tandem cylinder design,
developing in excess of three tons squeezing force, this easy to handle tool can function as a
hardware insertion press or as a hi-power riveter. To ensure flatness the 6000 CHP is fitted with a
special extra heavy duty yoke with increased gap. It accommodates
studs up to one half inch in
length as well as threaded inserts, floating nutplates, standoffs, etc. This unit comes complete with
special tooling for No.2, 4, 6, 8,10 studs and 2, 4, 6, 8,10 threaded inserts. This versatile tool with
proper tooling can be easily adapted to most all captive press-in-style
hardware. The tooling is
organized and shipped in an attractive custom fitted wooden box.

General Pneumatic Tools
3000 A
Shown With 1-1/2" Reach Jaws.
The Model 3000 A is a lightweight single cylinder alligator type tool designed for applications
requiring special access. The 3000 A can be fitted with interchangeable
jaws. It is powerful, easy to
handle and comfortable to use. In many applications this is the ideal tool. Jaws are interchangeable
with the 6000 A.
