FAQ

Q: How long do they last?
A: The steel mandrels should only be used for thicker skin dimpling, but they should last quite a long time. The copper mandrels are much more malleable and will eventually stretch with repeated use.

These dimple dies were great for tight spaces, but obviously don’t do as good as a job as the regular Cleveland dies the throat on the male die could be just a tad longer. My set also did not come with the brass nails that came with all the metal nails.

Always the right tool for the job

These little things are a wonderful! We've had a few locations we just could NOT get a squeezer, and these close quarters dies saved the day. Also saved my bacon when I forgot to dimple a few fuselage holes in the flat. No other tool could have reached those holes.

As for the company, Cleaveland tool is fantastic! Since we started our RV14A kit, we have had wonderful support from the folks at Cleaveland. These guys and gals regularly go above and beyond to help the experimental builder. Please support them any time you are able.

Close Quarters die set works

When you need it, you need it. This set works much better than one I had from another vendor. Don’t hesitate if your build needs a dimple die that you pull with a blind rivet tool.
