Questions & Answers

This is the 188M not 187M
ByDec 7, 2025
1 Answer | 
Answer This Question

Hello there, great observation. The 188M is actually the upgrade of the 187M. Unlike previous models the nose pieces can be screwed in by hand so they don't require a wrench. The nose pieces are color coded to match the corresponding rivet size. This tool is ideal for work on sheet metal, gutters and automotive work. Hope this helps! Your Arrow Team

                  How difficult is it to squeeze?
                  ByDec 29, 2023

                  Answer This Question

                  Hello - Because this is a heavy-duty manual tool, those with limited hand strength may find it hard to squeeze. If you decide to give it a try, be sure to save your receipt in case it is too difficult for you to use. - Your Arrow Fastener Team

                    RIVET STUCK INSIDE, CANNOT TAKE GUN APART
                    Rivet stem stuck inside. I watched, read and tried every suggestions found online, rivet is hard stuck inside. I could not disassemble either. So this was my 2nd use only, and i have to buy another rivet gun now....

                    Hello, we’re sorry to hear about your experience with your rivet gun. We’d like to mention that it’s important to select the best rivet size for the application and pre-drill pilot holes before attempting to install rivets. We stand behind our tools and want you to continue using Arrow products. You can do a warranty exchange at the retail location where you purchased your tool. Hope this helps. Your Arrow Team Arrow
                      Garbage
                      Bought this last year on sale. Finally decided to use it and it was a dud. Rivets don't go all the way in. You need two hands to install a 1/8" rivet. When it breaks the pin you can't get it out. Should not be allowed to sell this garbage.

                      Hello, we’re sorry you were disappointed with the One-Handed Swivel Rivet Tool. In some cases, performance issues can be resolved by removing the nosepiece, fully opening the handles, and lightly applying grease or oil to the tapered face of the jaws (avoid the serrated area). Depending on the rivet size and grip strength, multiple squeezes may be needed to set the rivet properly. If you believe the tool is defective, please exchange it at the retailer. We back our products with a limited lifetime warranty. Your Arrow Team Arrow

                          First time using a rivet gun. Super easy to squeeze. Color coating for the rivets and heads takes the gas work out of it.

                            Amazing tool
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter's chicken coop door broke from all the ice and snow we got. I ran up to the hardware store to get a rivet gun and picked this one up. It is well made and very sturdy. I was able to get the hinges back on very quickly with this one handed rivet gun. It works much better than I thought it was going to. I guess it pays to get a nice rivet gun, instead of one of those cheap ones that brakes after only a couple uses. Glad I went with the Arrow one handed riveted. Going to be in my tool collection for years to come.

                                Doesn’t perform
                                Not at all a one handed tool. I have large hands and the throw is too long for that. Plus after 20 uses the rivet end got caught in the head and it’s useless now.
