Installing the new 7.7mm Gtreriv rivets from Rivit with battery powered riveting tools is now possible, thanks to compatibility kits for the RIV720. 

Rivit, a company specialised in fastening solutions, has introduced the new compatibility kits for its battery powered riveting tool RIV720 and Gtreriv rivets – particularly used for installations in green and sustainable energy sectors such as photovoltaic and wind power. In particular, these kits allow the fastening of Gtreriv rivets with a diameter of 7.7mm, exceeding the maximum diameter currently supported by the 700 Series riveting tool, which is 6.4mm.

Gtreriv are neoprene gasketed rivets designed to be waterproof and suitable for installations intended to withstand harsh weather and conditions. Available in different diameters from 5.2mm – 7.7 mm, these rivets can be used on different types of materials, on soft surfaces and even on curved surfaces thanks to a good tensile strength and three pressure wings that allow distribution of the clamping force over a large area of the surface to be riveted. 

The 700 Series consists of four riveting tools, two for rivets – RIV710 and RIV720 – and two for rivet nuts – RIV730 and RIV740 – all equipped with powerful brushless motors and long-life batteries. Thanks to these features, the riveters enable mobile use, are easy to transport and can be used outdoors, on roofs and in all situations where compressed air or mains power is not available.
