Designed for quick, precise temporary fastening of body panels and sheet metal, this aviation-originated kit ensures perfect alignment and easy repositioning until permanent fixing. Compact and lightweight, it’s ideal for professionals demanding efficiency and accuracy in panel repair and assembly. ## Description Product Description A very useful kit of temporary fasteners. Simply drill a hole in two panels and insert a pin using the pliers to provide a temporary fixing between the panels. This fastener can be removed and replaced as many times as necessary until the panel is finished. Then you can either put in a permanent fastener such as a pop rivet or bolt, or the panel can be welded and the hole filled. Originally used in the aviation industry these pins have become very popular for all kinds of sheet metal work, from temporarily assembling ducting to securing body panels. Also included in the kit is a pair of edge clamps, used at the end of a joint or for other clamping requirements on the edge of a panel. These clamps are much smaller and easier to work around than traditional welding clamps or G clamps and also provide a more accurate alignment as they are located in holes. This set includes 1/8" (3mm) pins. This tends to be the most popular size requiring only a 1/8" (3mm) hole to use the fastener. Other sizes are available separately if desired. The plier tool will suit all sizes of Cleco pin. Set Includes 10 x 1/8" (3mm) Cleco Pins 2 x Edge Clamp 1 x Plier Insertion Tool (Supplied with either blue or black handles) Review: Fastener - Very good and a fair price Review: Work perfectly - If you are looking for clecos then you probably already know what they are, but in case you don't they're one of the most useful sheet metal hand tools out there. Perfect for holding patch panels in place, aligning panels, riveting, and even for controlling distortion when welding. I only wish you could get metric ones! ## Features - A very useful kit of temporary fasteners - This set includes 1/8" (3mm) pins. - 2 x Edge Clamp - 1 x Plier Insertion Tool - Simply drill a hole in two panels and insert a pin ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01M2AFV4Y | | Best Sellers Rank | 168,809 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 192 in Riveters | | Brand | AB Tools | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (360) | | Date First Available | 17 May 2014 | | Item Weight | 462 g | | Manufacturer | AB Tools | | Manufacturer part number | CLEC_Kit | | Manufacturer reference | CLEC_Kit | | Product Dimensions | 26 x 11 x 6 cm; 462 g | ## Images ![AB Tools Cleco Temporary Fastener/Rivet for Body Panel Repair Work - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qdc84RlOL.jpg) ![AB Tools Cleco Temporary Fastener/Rivet for Body Panel Repair Work - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61yr-UCJ8hL.jpg) ![AB Tools Cleco Temporary Fastener/Rivet for Body Panel Repair Work - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/711fG+g7oVL.jpg) ![AB Tools Cleco Temporary Fastener/Rivet for Body Panel Repair Work - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61qKze4qidL.jpg) ![AB Tools Cleco Temporary Fastener/Rivet for Body Panel Repair Work - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61llC9UFrAL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fastener *by D***N on 9 January 2026* Very good and a fair price ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Work perfectly *by A***E on 12 December 2024* If you are looking for clecos then you probably already know what they are, but in case you don't they're one of the most useful sheet metal hand tools out there. Perfect for holding patch panels in place, aligning panels, riveting, and even for controlling distortion when welding. I only wish you could get metric ones! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended. *by T***O on 21 January 2017* A B Tools - what a company - think the initials might be Absolutely Brilliant! I think the set was ordered and delivered in less than three days - we were away they they came otherwise I could tell you how many hours it took!. The quality is good, or rather just what is there to go wrong in basic terms as it's two metal handles and a rivet holding them together, but then the magic is with the fasteners, then it's your 'third hand' and I have checked them all out and they are all in good working order - much better than the tacky (as I was to find out..) set I brought at an 'auto-jumble' a while ago. If you have never tried this system before, look on YouTube and you will wonder how you struggled before. I would point out I 'lost' my original set I had years ago as somebody 'found them' before I had lost them, if you get my drift..
