Spin-Pull Tools for Rivet Nut Installation

Sherex® by PEM® spin-pull tools hydro-pneumatic installation systems designed to deliver fast, precise, and consistent rivet nut installation for medium to high-volume production environments. The spin-pull action combines rotation to engage the mandrel thread with a controlled pulling stroke to set the rivet nut, ensuring accurate installation force and repeatable results across every cycle.

Sherex by PEM's spin-pull tooling includes the FLEX-5, FLEX-18, and RIV943, each suited to install rivet nuts and rivet nut studs with varying thread sizes and force.

Tool Range

  • FLEX-5 Spin-Pull Tool – compact pneumatic tool for medium-to-high volume production for M3-M8 rivet nuts, 22 kN of pulling force
  • RIV943 Spin-Pull Tool – compact spin-pull installation tool for medium-to-high volume production for M4-M12 rivet nuts. 33kN of pulling force
  • FLEX-18 Spin-Pull Tool – hydro-pneumatic tool for installing large size rivet nuts, 80 kN of pulling force
  • FLEX-5 and FLEX-18 Process Monitoring – Process monitoring capabilities with both the FLEX-5 and FLEX-18 for precise installations, ensuring perfect installations
