- Milwaukee Tool continues to expand their M18 line working to cut the cord with pneumatics with the Milwaukee Tool M18 FUEL ¼” Blind Rivet Tool w/ONE-KEY. Milwaukee Tool claims this to be the industry’s fastest cordless rivet tool! This new tool installs rivets up to 50% faster and delivers up to 3X longer life versus competitive cordless rivet tools, all while eliminating the hassle and maintenance of pneumatic compressors and hoses.
Two years ago, The Milwaukee Tool M12 Rivet Tool was introduced by Milwaukee Tool as the world’s first cordless rivet tool for the professional trades. This new M18 model follows that tool up with larger capacity and better ergonimics for the professional user.
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/4" Blind Rivet Tool delivers 4,500 lbs. (20kN) of pulling force, 1.18" Stroke, and is designed for high strength blind rivets in all materials. The kitted M18 CP 2.0 Ah battery will install up to (900) 3/16” aluminum or (500) ¼” aluminum blind rivets in one charge.
The rivet tool comes with a set of four retention nose pieces (3/16”, 7/32”, 1/4”, and 9/32”) to hold blind rivets in place once inserted into the tool. Complete with onboard storage, the tool allows for all four retention nose pieces, as well as the wrench for switching between sizes, to be stored on the tool. For versatility, non-retention nose pieces are available separately. For added utility, a protective boot is available to offer a lightweight, durable solution for tool and workpiece protection and an available 6” extension allows users to install rivets in hard to reach applications.

I just wish this had the capability to do RIV Nuts. I think Milwaukee missed out on a whole market but this tool is great none the less.
This was literally just announced. And y’all already have it and reviewed. Love it
Hope you enjoyed it! You can purchase them right now!
Hello.
Fantastic tools!
Thanks 🙏
You should try popping 1/4 stainless steel monobolt or at least 1/4 rivets. It doesn't make any sense trying 3/16 as the M12 can do the job already.
Great tool and great review. Wish I would have a use for it. I can imagine this being a dream for people who use pneumatic rivet guns all day.
Thanks for the video
I like you'ar knowledge keep going
Can this or the M12 pull cherrymax rivets?
Will it do the 7.7 gesipa bulb type rivets ?
Can this do mounting bolts as well?
can i use it with threaded rivet nuts ?
Bought it really like it
The 12 volt tool seems to be just as good as the 18v. Why spend the extra for the same result? $199 vs $799? For the DIY guy the 12v is the way to go. However I will say I love both tools.
While the 12 volt tool has it's place, it doesn't even come close to the capability's of the 18V version. The M18 has more than double the pulling force (4500 lbs. vs 2000 lbs.) and is able to do 1/4" and 9/32" rivets.
Is there a corded version of these riveters?
Nice review!
Is there anything for rivet nuts?
Those are hard to install by hand.
As always, thanks for looking at new tools! :)
We install a ton of those on jeeps and everything we have done is by hand.
do m12 rivet gun tips work on m18 rivet gun
I think many people are complaining about the price because they don't understand the market. A gesipa Accubird which has been the industry go to for decades will cost double what the M18 does. Don't confuse this with the M12. It's not a tool for people who may use a thousand rivets a year, this is for people who use thousands a day. In my opinion it's dirt cheap and much cheaper than the competition.
On the mandrels not collecting : maybe this works better if you hold the trigger a bit longer, so they get transported to the rear a bit further ?
Could be, but after putting more and more through it, they slip down less. Could be too much oil from the factory.
No... its been a constant problem. I've returned 3 units... Also, batteries feel loose nd rattly and makes the unit feel cheap. Still havent accepted the fact I spent this much money on a $1400 McDonalds toy that doesnt even do the job. Was terrible to deal with up on a ladder
I bet Ryobi will come out with one next
This is a $999 tool, so it would have to be gone over and seen where they can save some costs.
🏆🏆🏆👍🙏
Thank you for sharing🇺🇲
this tool is made for structural rivets. monobolts
I bought one of these without knowing what to use it for. It cost me 125 dollars along with a 6.0 battery... but when I looked at the price I said it was my lucky day 🍀
Lol lies
@@dannyrivera1157 no es mentira ..tu sabes que en la calle encuentras muchas cosas solo ay que saber buscar
👍👌
it would have been a little nicer if Milwaukee had thrown in a hard case with this tool too, hey just saying for the price.
That is a hefty price tag compared to the m12 version!
Compared to others in the market for its capability, it's cheap.
milwaukee is a great product but for that kind of money you'd think they would also throw in a hard case for the tool.
YES!!! I was expecting a spectacuar experience; returned 3 times, still unsatisfied
Omg, that thing is HUGE! I'll stick with my little M12 version.
It is larger but SO much more comfortable than the M12
@@WorkshopAddict That's how I feel about all M18 tools.
@@svn5994 Yeah, you either like big grips on the M12 or not, but the M12 rivet gun has a huge grip, even for an M12 tool
You won’t pull a 1/4 with the m12
@@anythingbutwheelswithdanmi6040 yeah, you're probably right. But for what I use it for the m12 rocks.
Can’t it do huck pins
I need this! But gosh $1000 😅
First review
Pause a second for the mandrel to be retracted before lifting off the work piece. Wait for the second activation sound. User error, not tool problem.
Those were pop rivets, not blind rivets no?
They're all blind rivets. POP is a brand name.
Gravity
👍🏼🍻🍺👍🏼
keep your finger on the trigger after it pops and it will collect the mandrel in the back
Yeah use plastic rivets in it if you want to clog the 💩out of it
The real down side is the price . Way over priced I have the m12 but I will not buy this tool till milwaukee pulls there heard out of there ass and put a real price on it . Certainly not worth the big bucks there asking for it !
It's very cheap for the market that it's in. Rivet guns like this are for professionals who use thousands of rivets a day, not home gamers and DIY men who may use a thousand or less in a year.
A gesipa will set you back double.
@@SammyInnit all I know it’s just now worth $800 bucks for a bare tool . I got the bare tool m12 for $200 bucks . So I think the m18 really should at the high end should be more like $350 bucks . We have been using a model the goes on the drill gun and the price for the rivet tool was $89 bucks . And they work well . Hummm what you can do with the extra $700 bucks ? That’s a lot of extra cash in MY POCKET !
@@johnbailey9682 Like I said, if you can't justify the price tag you don't actually need it.
@@Pi4zza It really isn't. If you know anything you know Gesipa, Makita, Metabo or Lobster will cost much more. Even a good quality pneumatic will cost that.
@@Pi4zza I live in the UK.
Ive returned mine 3 times because its a suer pricey tool and wont swallow the mandrill... Then next replacement feels like a McDonalds toy, the battery rattles horribly... 3 rd replacement, battery rattles some, not as solid as 1 st one I got, and wont swallow regularly. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT, 3 different units. ALL DISAPPOINTING. Customer Service accommodating but who cares; each replacement feels junkie and doesnt do 2 of the 3 functions it's suppose to and it's a $1400 tool... Get bent Millshplakkee
What we want is the thickest rivets there is to do, and not these easy to do by hand tool thats 20$ and not 2k$ tool
