Description of the nut thread setter kit, its components, and its primary function.

Step-by-Step Usage

Detailed instructions for drilling, selecting parts, installing threaded inserts, and using the tool.

This document describes the 45 PC Threaded Insert Rivet Kit, an owner's manual for item number W2006, manufactured by Performance Tool®. This kit is designed to create backless attachment points in various workpieces using threaded inserts.

Function Description:

The primary function of this kit is to install threaded inserts into a single drilled hole, providing a secure, threaded attachment point where traditional nuts or backing plates might be inaccessible or impractical. The kit includes a rugged thread setting tool, various sized mandrels and nosepieces, 40 assorted thread nuts, a wrench, and a storage case. The tool operates by squeezing its handles, which forms a bulge on the back of the threaded insert, firmly securing it in the workpiece. This allows for subsequent fastening of objects using bolts or machine screws into the newly installed threaded insert.

Important Technical Specifications:

The kit supports multiple insert sizes, each requiring a specific drill diameter:

Insert Size 6-32: Requires a 9/32" drill.
Insert Size 8-32: Requires a 9/32" drill.
Insert Size 10-24: Requires a 5/16" drill.
Insert Size 1/4-20: Requires a 3/8" drill.

The tool features a mandrel with a left-hand thread for installation into the head. A depth screw allows for setting the desired length of the insert installation, and a mandrel adjusting knob facilitates removal of the mandrel from the threaded insert after installation.

Usage Features:

The operation of the threaded insert rivet kit involves a clear, step-by-step process:

Drilling: Drill the recommended diameter hole for the chosen threaded insert into the workpiece.
Selection: Select the matching mandrel and nosepiece from the kit based on the insert size.
Mandrel Installation: While the wrench/handle lock is engaged (keeping the handles together), screw the mandrel into the tool's head (note: this is a left-hand thread).
Tightening: Remove the wrench and tighten the mandrel snug. The wrench is designed to prevent overtightening.
Nosepiece Installation: Screw on the nosepiece until snug, which may be easier if the handles are held together in the closed position.
Insert Loading: With the handles released, screw the threaded insert flange end first onto the mandrel.
Depth Setting: Set the depth screw to the desired length for the insert.
Positioning: Pass the threaded insert through the drilled hole until its flange is flush with the workpiece.
Installation: Squeeze the tool handles until the threaded insert is firmly installed by forming a bulge against the back of the workpiece. The depth adjustment screw may need to be fine-tuned to achieve the desired bulge.
Mandrel Removal: Release the tool handles fully and turn the mandrel adjusting knob counter-clockwise to remove the mandrel from the newly installed threaded insert.
Fastening: Fasten the desired object by screwing a bolt or machine screw into the installed threaded insert.

A pilot test is always recommended before installing threaded inserts into the final workpiece to ensure the proper stop position and desired bulge in the insert.

Maintenance Features:

The manual emphasizes the owner's/operator's responsibility for maintenance, including maintaining all decals or warning labels and ensuring the unit is in good working order during use. Regular inspection of the product according to operating instructions is advised.

Safety Information:

The manual includes comprehensive general and personal safety rules:

Environment: Do not operate power tools in explosive environments or near flammable liquids, gas, or dust.
