Rivet nuts, also known as sheetnuts or nutserts, provide a strong
captivated thread in thin panels and in applications where only one side
of the panel is accessible such as box or tube section.
They can be installed into panels as thin as 0.5mm and do not suffer from
the maximum hardness limitations of self-clinching nuts, so are suitable
for installation into hard or non-ductile panels.
Requiring special tooling for installation - tools range from very low cost
hand tools for low volume, to air powered automatic installation guns for
high volume applications.
Rivet nuts have an advantage over other captivated fasteners because
they can be installed on site or used for repair work to replace a
previously installed fastener that has failed. The advantage of installation
from one side of the application means that access to the back of the
panel is never required.
Available in open and closed-end body styles, in thinsheet, flathead,
countersunk and hexagon head styles in steel, stainless steel and
aluminium, with the option of plain or splined body.
