MinovaRivet Removal Tool, Rivet Removal Drill Bit, Suitable with Standard 1/8", 5/32", 3/16", 7/32" and 1/4" Rivets

Works just like they should.

Does not bite until you have drilled well into the rivet, but that’s impossible because the bit will either break or smoke and become dull well. $60 I’ll never see again.

Item did exactly what it was supposed to perfectly and hassle free. I was definitely surprised on how it removed the rivets without having to use a punch or pliers. One tip though , if you are removing more than one rivet clean the tool as the heads accumulate after removal. I removed 12 rivets in approximately 2 minutes without ruining the surface.

It’s over engineered. You can simply drill rivets out. That’s basically all this does. The first time I used it the outer rivet-guide piece came off and is lost making the whole tool useless.

Reallly had some high hopes for this tool, removing rivets and quickly as possible rather than a portable grinder. When we used the tool either the rivet heads are too hard/ flat. The head just movers off the head of the rivet. Need a pilot divot for the drill to grab.When dealing with road signs that were done by contractors and their rivets. Trying to replace signage takes forever when you either have to hammer n chisel or wheel grind off the heads for 3,000 signsHoping we can finagle something to help

I found this to be a high quality item that was simple to use. Other reviewers complained that it was difficult to you but that wasn’t my experience.

The product appears to be of great quality have not used it yet, but I am looking forward to the moment I do.

I tried it out on an 1/8" pop rivet, it worked great! You do need to be smart enough to see that it is adjustable and it does need to be adjusted. You have to adjust the nose so that the drill tip is just below flush before attempting to use it. After that, the teeth on the nose kept the rivet from spinning while drilling it out.
