For over a century, Desoutter pneumatic tools have set the global standard for innovation and efficiency in industrial applications. As Canada’s leading supplier, Dobco Equipment continues to provide professionals with the complete range of Desoutter riveting compression tools, including squeezers, sheet metal punches, edge formers, and riveting hammers, along with all necessary accessories.
The Desoutter lineup features five standard riveting compression tool designs: alligator jaw with single or tandem cylinder, C-yoke with single or tandem cylinder, and pneumatic C-yoke models. These tools come equipped with five-millimeter rivet set shanks and are now available with adjustable rivet set holders for enhanced versatility. Performance specifications vary significantly across the product range, with light tools handling rivets from 2.4 to 7.1 millimeters and hard tools accommodating 1.6 to 6.4 millimeter diameters. Force capabilities range from 1,800 to 13,500 pounds, with yoke dimensions spanning 38.1 to 232 millimeters for reach and 17 to 38.1 millimeters for closed height.
Dobco’s inventory includes nearly two dozen sizes of Desoutter squeezers, available with either C-yokes or alligator jaws. These tools combine robust construction with an exceptional power-to-weight ratio, offering both fast and slow approach options to suit various production requirements. Selecting the appropriate tool requires careful consideration of four key factors: the material diameter of the rivet being used, the specific application requirements including accessibility and specifications, the necessary power and design characteristics of the squeezer, and finally the proper rivet set shank configuration including type and length.
Beyond squeezers, Dobco offers an extensive selection of complementary tools and accessories. The product range includes more than twenty sizes of rivet sets in cupped, flush, or soft configurations, sheet metal punches with a 4.8 millimeter punching capacity and actuation throttle guards, specialized edge formers for flattening spot-welded flanges and removing bends, and a comprehensive line of riveting hammers designed for all industrial applications. These hammers feature progressive triggers for precise control and ergonomic designs to maximize operator comfort during extended use. The selection process for hammers mirrors that of squeezers, requiring evaluation of rivet material, application accessibility, and appropriate tool and set specifications.
With Dobco Equipment’s expertise and Desoutter’s century of engineering excellence, Canadian manufacturers have access to some of the most reliable and efficient pneumatic riveting solutions available in today’s market. The combination of durable construction, precise performance specifications, and thoughtful ergonomic design ensures these tools meet the demanding requirements of modern industrial applications while improving productivity and reducing operator fatigue.
