These work fine, just be careful not to pull too hard. The nail stretches each time you use it until it breaks, but the dimples are accurate.

This dimple set works great for the holes the squeezer can’t reach.

Dimples in a .038 aluminum sheet were excellent. It likely can do harder or thicker materials too. Comes with only five standard stainless steel nails with diameter fitting the rivet holes. I broke the first nail after 15 dimples. Beware: when the nail breaks, the die shoots off, and the tiny thing is hard to find in a crammed workshop.

This product works as advertised but is not terribly durable. The dimple degrades over a short time. Additionally, the center shaft (nail) fails after a half dozen dimples. It’s good that a spare is provided. This will allow for maybe a dozen dimples. Then you must find a replacement “nail” to continue. For the price, though, it does work.

Does it dimple? Yes. Picture is deceiving. The shaft that you pull with a squeezer is not anything special. It is simply a nail. Thats it. A hardware store nail you would drive into a piece of wood. Its also a little smaller than 1/8 which doesnt help the die center on the dimple. Also the nail heads arent straight so the die gets squeezed at an angle.
