The FAR RAC171 is an industrial-grade Air Rivet Gun built for high-volume, heavy-duty riveting. It's engineered specifically for structural rivets, including Huck Magnalok® and Avdel Monobolt®. It installs rivets from 4.8mm up to 6.4mm, plus aluminium rivets up to 7.8mm (standard rivets only).
As an Authorised FAR Dealer and factory-trained service centre in Australia, RivetLab supplies the RAC171 with full local warranty backing and spare parts support, something many overseas listings can't offer.
One-hand operation is possible thanks to on/off air suction that holds the rivet in the nose, while the built-in vacuum extraction system collects spent mandrels into a detachable container, keeping the work area clear and speeding up repetitive installation runs. A refillable hydraulic oil system and swivel airline fitting (1/4" BSP) round out a tool designed for continuous production use.
Made in Italy and backed by a 12-month warranty, the RAC171 is a direct, lower-cost alternative to comparable structural riveting tools without a compromise on pulling force or build quality.
