Chain riveter recommendations

#1 PostAuthor: Mick J » Fri Jun 26, 2020 7:11 pm

Can anyone recommend a decent chain riveter?I want one that will do at least 530 heavy duty X ring chain, I'm not too bothered about 630 chain. I don't want to spend too much, but don't want a piece of crap either. Any advice appreciated

Make sure you get the right one,there are 2 types,one for riveting a solid pin and one for flaring a pin with a hollow end,as mentioned Whale are good.
