RIVET BUSH ORDER BOOK GIVES NORTHERN PRECISION A
GOOD START TO 2005
It is certainly a happy new year for Northern Precision Ltd (www.npfasteners.com), the specialist single-
source supplier of fasteners as well as special-purpose turned and cold-formed parts, with sales director
Steve Smith already reporting a healthy order intake during January – especially for the company’s wide
range of rivet bushes.
“Customers are increasingly realising the benefits of rivet bushes’ ability to generate strong re-usable threads
in materials too thin to be conventionally tapped,” he says. “This particularly applies to sheet metal
applications and we are committed to increasing the ranges we stock.”
Offering a wide variety of types – from round bushes with a serrated face and spigots, mini rivet bushes,
hexagon through to stand-off – rivet bushes can be installed into panels as thin as 0.5 mm and do not suffer
from the maximum hardness limitations often encountered with self-clinching nuts and standoffs. This
makes them ideal for use in stainless steel panels.
Most types of rivet bushes can be supplied off-the-shelf in steel and stainless steel, with aluminium and
brass types provided to order. As standard, they are available to suit a range of panel thicknesses up to 3 mm
thick (10swg), as well as to non-standard dimensions and for hole sizes to suit specific applications.
Accredited to BS EN ISO 9001:2000, the company maintains an extensive variety of 5,000 in-stock standard
line items covering most applications and materials. In addition to rivet bushes, the company supplies sheet
nuts, self-clinching, high-strength and broaching fasteners, weld nuts and studs, cage nuts and blind rivets,
as well as special turned and cold-formed components to customer requirements.
