A rivet nut setting tool having a frame with a head at one end and a grip at the other. A lever is pivotally mounted on the frame and its grip is generally parallel with the frame grip. The lever carries a threaded shaft which extends through an opening in the head. The shaft is rotated to take up the rivet nut to be set, and the grips are squeezed together to set the rivet in the work piece.
