The silverline tool is OK but no better than that, I could feel/hear the

been worse for wear before its first job is completed - I tend to regard
their products as cheap and almost disposable.


I've used mine quite a bit and found it ok. You must be very strong if
you've managed to destroy it - as you can easily 'feel' the rivnut
compressing.
