Good Rivnut Tool?

[Black Hawk]

I'd like to buy myself a basic rivnut tool, one that does steel not just alloy nutserts, any suggestions where I can get one that do the job on a budget? It doesn't have to last a lifetime.
Or any particular one to avoid?

Are these as good as some people say that they are. I have heard a lot of bad reports about them but is that just because people use them incorrectly? I can see that they would be a nightmare if they start slipping when trying to undo something.

JonnyT...YES they are....I borrowed one from Kev....and as long as they are used correctly in my opinion one of the best tools and most valuable tools on a cobra build.

In basic glassfibre...no probs whatsoever..if the glassfibre has a steel 'stiffener'behind...a little more caution is needed so as not to strip the thread.

I have one of these. Brilliant tool, lots of size M4 - M8? and will do stainless inserts as well.
