Rivet Busters were originally designed to cut rivets off metal structures. Today Rivet Busters are widely known as tough, powerful tools used for all types of concrete demolition work. They have the ability to perform all types of medium to heavy demolition work. They have a low frequency blow and are usually equivalent to a paving breaker of twice their weight. The ratio of their high impact energy versus their weight make them a most efficient tool.
Rivet busters come in several different sizes and with several different handle designs.
Safety precautions must be taken whilst using Rivet Busters. In some models the piston can fire inadvertently.
