The HL Series has a longer reach forming peen, making it easier to form the rivet. It is normally available with a 4º forming angle, with some ranging from 3° to 6°, requiring more downforce than the HS Series. With the extra downforce, shank swell is a possibility, making formed rivets locked in place and more resistant to joint fatigue.
