+1 for the PEM captive nuts. I use a lot of broach style and they are great. You can buy them from McMaster-Carr.

If you need large quantity I'd recommend S.W. Anderson
http://www.swaco.com/ They can supply bulk bags for a fraction of McMaster.
For setting steel rivnuts I like the LEM tool. I have a set from #6 to 1/4. I haven't tried their spiral action speed header but it looks interesting. I've never set captive nuts with my LEM tool but it would likely work.
