This detailed product description presents the tool set belonging to the Wieländer+Schill professional body repair tools, specifically designed for installing 8.0 mm diameter Flow Form Rivets (FFR). The set consists of two essential key components required for precise and reliable riveting work, which are part of the XSeries – Professional Riveting Technology product family.
A part number 700338 The purpose of the tool kit is to ensure optimal conditions for the professional installation of high-load, 8.0 mm diameter flow form rivets. The application of this type of rivet is critical for joining automotive body elements, especially those made of high-strength steel and aluminum alloys, where welding is not applicable or desired. The kit guarantees a standard-compliant, durable, and aesthetic joint.
This tool set is composed of the following two main components:
C3 | Setting Die
C4 | Closing Die
The professional design ensures a long service life and consistent performance, even under heavy use, making it ideal for workshops and service centers.
The product has been developed according to Wieländer+Schill's quality standards, ensuring precise fit and efficient operation.

The 700338 tool set contains the following individual components that work in synergy with each other:
Part number: 700266
Function: This tool is responsible for preparing the head of the flow form rivet and inserting the rivet body into the receiving material, as well as shaping the rivet shank for the closing operation.
Application: Specifically optimized for 8.0 mm diameter FFR rivets.
Előnyök: Its precise design ensures the rivet head fits correctly against the body surface, minimizing damage and stress around the joint.
Part number: 700267
Function: Final shaping of the end of the rivet shank prepared by the C3 tool, creating the solid, controlled closing head on the backside of the body panel.
Application: Compatible with 8.0 mm diameter FFR rivets.
Előnyök: The C4 tool ensures optimal deformation of the rivet closing side, which is essential for achieving maximum ultimate tensile strength and vibration resistance.
Flow Form Riveting (FFR) technology is a modern process that creates high-strength joints without requiring the rivet material to be pre-punched or threaded. During the process, the tools (C3 and C4) press the rivet using hydraulic or pneumatic force, resulting in the cold flow (flow forming) of the rivet material.
Advantages of the C3 + C4 Kit:
High clamping force: The connection created by the cold flow process often exceeds the strength of traditional rivets, especially in the case of high-strength materials.
Material Compatibility: Ideally suited for joining sheets of various thicknesses and strengths, for example, MS (Mild Steel), HSLA (High-Strength Low-Alloy), or AHSS (Advanced High-Strength Steel) materials used in modern vehicles.
Precise Geometry: The special contours of the tools guarantee that the rivet closing head fits precisely to the manufacturer's specifications, which is essential for maintaining the structural integrity of the body.
Professional XSeries Quality: As a member of the Wieländer+Schill XSeries product line, these tools meet the highest industrial requirements, ensuring reliable and repeatable results.
The use of this tool set requires a compatible riveting machine capable of providing the force and stroke length necessary for installing 8.0 mm FFR rivets.
Related Accessories (Zubehör):
Although the 700338 set alone provides a complete solution for 8 mm FFR rivets, the C3 and C4 tools are also available separately in the Wieländer+Schill assortment in case replacement or special requirements arise:
Part Number 700266: C3 Setting Tool (available separately)
Part Number 700267: C4 Closing Tool (available separately)
This tool set reflects Wieländer+Schill's commitment to vehicle body repair technology, providing professionals with the most modern and reliable tools even for the most demanding tasks.
