Pneumatic Rivet Gun – Industrial-Grade Air Riveter for Sandblasting Systems

Perfect for sandblasting professionals, metal fabricators, industrial maintenance teams, and engineering workshops across New Zealand who require a durable, high-pressure pneumatic rivet gun for assembling, repairing, or reinforcing sandblasting equipment and protective systems.

In the demanding world of sandblasting—where reliability, safety, and precision matter most—the Pneumatic Rivet Gun provides powerful and consistent fastening performance. It’s built to handle the harsh conditions of abrasive blasting environments, where equipment faces constant vibration, dust, and heavy use. Designed for use in sandblast pot assembly, steel frame reinforcement, nozzle housing installation, and blast cabinet maintenance, this rivet gun ensures tight, secure connections that withstand high pressures and repeated stress.

Whether you’re maintaining a portable blast pot in Auckland, assembling heavy steel frames in Christchurch, or servicing marine blasting gear in Tauranga, this pneumatic riveter delivers unmatched strength, speed, and endurance.

Description – Pneumatic Rivet Gun for Sandblasting

The Pneumatic Rivet Gun for Sandblasting is a professional-grade air-powered fastening tool engineered specifically for environments where durability and reliability are essential. In sandblasting systems, every joint, clamp, and support must endure vibration, pressure, and continuous movement—this rivet gun is built for exactly that.

Made with hardened alloy steel internals and a corrosion-resistant anodised aluminium body, it performs flawlessly even in abrasive or dusty conditions. It uses compressed air—typically between 4 to 8 bar—to generate a strong pulling force that sets blind rivets instantly, producing tight, vibration-proof joints.

The precision-engineered air motor converts air pressure into linear pulling motion, forming uniform rivet heads without damaging surrounding components. The dual-action trigger system provides both power and control, allowing the operator to adjust pulling speed and stroke length for different material thicknesses commonly found in sandblasting frames, tanks, and equipment housings.

Each unit includes multiple interchangeable nosepieces to fit various rivet diameters (2.4mm–6.4mm). The quick-release mandrel collector keeps workspaces clean—critical in abrasive environments—and prevents stray mandrels from contaminating blasting media.

The tool’s ergonomic grip and balanced body design ensure operator comfort during long use, especially when assembling blast cabinets, nozzles, frames, or compressor housing units. With low vibration and an insulated handle, it minimises fatigue and offers full control, even during continuous use in high-decibel workshop environments.

This rivet gun is fully compatible with compressed-air systems commonly found in sandblasting setups and maintenance facilities across New Zealand. Its efficient air consumption and robust sealing system make it suitable for field and shop use alike.

Key Points

Built for Sandblasting Environments:
Specifically designed to perform under dust, vibration, and abrasive conditions found in sandblasting operations. The sealed body prevents grit ingress and prolongs tool life.

Heavy-Duty Pneumatic Power:
Uses compressed air to deliver consistent pulling force for fast, secure rivet installation on metal frames, cabinets, pressure tanks, and compressor housings.

Corrosion & Abrasion Resistant Housing:
Anodised aluminium and hardened steel internals resist wear from fine blasting dust, ensuring reliability even in harsh coastal or industrial settings.

Interchangeable Nosepieces:
Supports a wide range of rivet sizes, enabling one tool to cover multiple sandblasting equipment types—from small nozzle brackets to thick-gauge steel chassis.

Quick Mandrel Collection System:
Integrated mandrel container prevents loose metal fragments from entering the blasting workspace, maintaining safety and cleanliness.

Ergonomic Design & Reduced Vibration:
Comfort-grip handle, balanced centre of gravity, and anti-vibration body reduce user fatigue, essential for long assembly or repair sessions.

Optimised for Workshop Air Systems:
Operates on standard NZ shop compressors (4–8 bar range) with adjustable air regulation, making it a seamless addition to existing sandblasting setups.

Precision, Speed & Consistency:
Delivers perfectly uniform rivets, ensuring equipment remains airtight, vibration-resistant, and structurally sound under blasting pressures.

Benefits

Reliable Joints Under Extreme Conditions:
In sandblasting operations, joints face constant shock and vibration. The Pneumatic Rivet Gun creates tight, vibration-resistant connections that maintain strength through extended use.

Increased Productivity:
By automating the pulling force with compressed air, workers can install hundreds of rivets quickly and consistently—ideal for large blast cabinet assemblies or repair jobs.

Low Maintenance & Long Life:
Its sealed design keeps abrasive dust out of the air motor, reducing maintenance frequency. Simple oiling through the air inlet keeps it running smoothly for years.

Safer Work Environment:
The mandrel catcher reduces airborne metal debris, while the low-noise exhaust system ensures a quieter workshop—important for health and safety compliance.

Enhanced Operator Comfort:
With low vibration, balanced weight, and a non-slip handle, users experience less strain during long assembly or repair sessions.

Universal Application:
Beyond sandblasting, the same gun can be used for repairing compressor frames, tanks, bodywork, and industrial equipment—making it a versatile investment.

Precision Control:
Adjustable stroke control prevents over-pulling rivets or damaging thin panels, ensuring every fastener is seated perfectly the first time.

Durable in Harsh Environments:
Its construction withstands exposure to grit, humidity, and metal dust. Even in coastal or outdoor blasting sites, corrosion resistance ensures dependable operation.
