Snaps, double-cap rivets, solid rivets with burrs and roll-design eyelets use different setting arrangements. Identify the fastener family and size first. Then compare the forming tool, lower support and any hardware actually supplied so that a broad kit name does not obscure a missing or incompatible part.

Copper rivet-and-burr setter
A No.9 copper-rivet system
Osborne 170-9: 0.171in setter hole for stated 0.161in shank
Tandy’s six-piece Deluxe Snap-All/Rivet set includes multiple setters and an anvil base. It names Segma, Line 20/24, Rapid Rivets, Double Cap Rivets up to 11mm and Brooklyn rivet/post hardware. Its manufacturer excludes rivets with burrs, wide or domed rivets and solid-brass/stainless line snaps. Choose it for the named systems; a copper rivet-and-burr project needs a different matched setter.
Use exact model numbers for burr and eyelet tools
C.S. Osborne’s 170-9 is mapped by the manufacturer to a No.9 copper rivet, with a 0.171-inch setter hole and a 0.161-inch rivet shank. Those two diameters describe different parts of the fit. HolsterSmith’s HRSK8 instead supplies a base and ram for #8, 1/4-inch roll-design eyelets. The number 8 in an eyelet system and the number 9 in a copper-rivet system do not form a shared size scale.
Compare tool-only sets with a hardware bundle
The Shenyudora press-pliers package includes the squeezing tool, 160 double-cap rivet sets and 40 snap sets. The rivets use 10mm caps with 6 or 8mm posts; the snaps have 15mm caps. That can be useful if those specific fasteners suit the project. If you already have the correct hardware, a matched hand setter may be the simpler purchase. The number of consumable sets is different from the number of complete setting tools.
Diameter does not choose the post length for you
Check the assembled material thickness, fastener post and correct recess/support together. A 1/4-inch eyelet diameter does not establish an unlimited binding thickness, and a 10mm rivet cap does not specify the post length. Tandy recommends checking its compatible assembly on scrap with the relevant thickness and post length. Follow the selected system’s instructions rather than transferring a universal allowance from a different fastener.

No. Tandy excludes rivets with burrs from this Deluxe set. Choose a setter for the actual rivet-and-burr system instead of matching only the word rivet.
What do the two Osborne 170-9 diameters mean when choosing a rivet?
They describe different things: the manufacturer lists the setter hole at 0.171in and the No.9 copper-rivet shank at 0.161in. They are not two competing measurements of the same hole.
Are eyelets included with the HolsterSmith #8 setter?
The selected package is the base and ram. Eyelet bundles are separate selections; choose the proper roll-design eyelets and post length for your assembly.
Does a rivet “set” mean one metal piece?
A fastener set can contain mating components. For example, the Shenyudora snap set lists socket, stud, base and cap. Its 40 snap sets should not be read as only forty loose pieces or forty tools.
Exact retained fastener-system contents plus manufacturer-matched Osborne 170-9 dimensions. System matching is not a universal die-compatibility or installation-result claim.
