A pneumatic rivet shaver is a specialized air-powered tool used to smooth or shave the heads of rivets so they are flush with the surrounding surface—typically on metal structures.

 

 What it does:

After a rivet is installed, its head may protrude slightly. A pneumatic rivet shaver removes that excess metal to create a flat, smooth finish, which is important for:

-Aerodynamics (e.g., in aircraft structures)

-Aesthetic appearance

-Safety and structural integrity

 

 Common uses:

-Aerospace industry (airplanes, helicopters)

-Automotive repair

-Shipbuilding and metal fabrication

-Any project requiring flush rivet finishes
