The AR2000 Air Riveter Series

Changing the Work Station with Lobster

The first product Lobtex brought to the market was a hair clipper in 1888. In 1923, they begin production of monkey wrenches. They then succeeded at a completely closed die forging process for the first time in Japan, establishing a firm position in the tool industry.

Since then, Lobtex has built the Lobster brand to a high degree of trust, bringing out new work tools one after the other. Today, their products include fastening tools, diamond tools, hydraulic tools for electrical facilities, plumbing tools and many more.

The AR2000 air riveter has a lightweight, compact design that delivers a high output (up to 15 kilowatts) through the combination of high-strength aluminum and engineering plastic. An optimal shape was selected for materials using computer structural analysis technology developed for hand tools, and the combination of air and ultra-high hydraulic pressure technology ensures fast work. The ergonomic design also alleviates fatigue for workers.
