We stand behind our tools with our LIFETIME GUARANTEE!

Compare our RV tool kit *to other suppliers**, Isham Inc. provides much more:*

Commercial Quality DRDT-2 dimpler instead of the out-dated C-Frame dimpler (No matter how great a C-Frame claims to be it is still an antiquated tool.)
Pneumatic Squeezer instead of the hand squeezer (It is a myth that a hand squeezer is needed. No matter how easy a hand squeezer claims to be it cannot compare to the one hand operation and ease of simply squeezing the trigger. The pneumatic squeezer fits anywhere a hand squeezer would, is much easier to operate and provides more consistent and better quality dimples and rivets.)
Best Spring Back Dimple Dies available anywhere. Compare ours to the other company that claims to make the best dies.
Spring Back pop rivet dimple dies for better quality dimples.
True aviation drill bits (not low cost jobber length drill bits).
Straight Cut Aviation Tin Snips (needed for long straight cuts)
Tungsten Bucking Bar (preferred by most all builders).
More clecos.
Klein Mechanic Tools and Snap-On Industrial high quality riveting set tools for more professional workmanship.
RV complete airframe builders tool kits are tailored to the RV-7, RV-7A, RV-8, RV-8A, RV-9, RV-10, RV-12 and the RV-14 airframes. Also, the complete airframe tool kits are available for the quick-build option offered by Van’s Aircraft.
In addition to better quality tools, our complete airframe RV Tool Kit is about $200.00 LESS EXPENSIVE than our competitor when you exchange their clang-hammer dimpler and their hand-squeezer (make sure to read the entire post) for professional quality aircraft tools.

What does this mean to our customers?
