So which of the stated pulling forces is correct? 2423 pounds or 633 pounds? Big difference...

When I contacted the manufacturer of this item they said it does 2,423 lbs of pulling force. I tested it and the readings were consistent at 2,480 lbs.

Product Descriptions show Pulling pressure = 2423 pounds; pulling force = 633 pounds. Which is it or what's the diff when comparing to other models?

Sorry, don't know and not sure it matters. We have been using it to pull 1/4 and 3/16 inch steel shank rivets and it pulls them with little effort. I was a bit sceptical about 1/4 inch before trying it but I was pleasantly surprised when we put it to use.

How tight of a space will this tool work in?

I’m in the auto mechanic business as well as use them on foreign cars such as Mercedes, BMW, Audi’s and more. You just need 1/2” clearance for the head. Their are also offset Heads you can change into this part as well which I’ve down. I’ve NEVER had an issue with clearanceA, you just need to think and find the correct angle to attack your project at, or remove the part and use it rather then it being on the vehicle. It does amazing work on window regulators that I’ve fixed with the door panel removed and used the Pneumatic Rivet Gun into the door. And it is simple to set fresh TIGHT rivets on those window regulators. Also used it on quite a few jeeps that wanted their Plastic like texture flairs installed with rivets. I would mark the holes with a dot after measuring and asking the customer how many rivets they want on it. Then drill the small tiny holes, or larger holes on the original fender flair, lime up the extended aftermarket fender flair, then river them in with the tool while the tires are installed. Afterwards I’d finish up with a cordless Dremel and cut the old factory fender flair 1/16” on the side right before it meets the new riveted extended version. Then use the cordless Dremel again with multiple flap tools to shave down the sharp edge and add matching paint along the bare exposed metal from the inner fender section that was cut.

Will a pancake compressor be sufficient to power this riveter?

Yes, you just need 90-120psi which most pancakes can handle. I’ve been installing 1/4” steel rivets off my dewalt pancake all day and it works great!
