Core Specifications & Benefits
Standard Thread & Material: These aluminum rivet nuts feature a 1/4-20 internal thread, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of common bolts. The aluminum construction provides a strong yet lightweight fastening solution with good corrosion resistance.
Precision Dimensions: Each rivnut has a body diameter of 0.350”, a total length of 0.600”, and is designed for a material grip range of 0.040” to 0.120”. This makes them ideal for creating sturdy threads in sheet metal, plastics, and composite panels.
Versatile Applications: This 1/4 20 rivet nut kit is suited for automotive panels, electronics enclosures, machinery, DIY projects, and any scenario where you need to add a durable thread to thin materials where the back side is inaccessible.
Package Contents: You will receive 28 individual 1/4-20 rivet nuts.
Simple Installation Process:
Drill a clean hole in your workpiece.
Insert the rivet nut.
Thread the correct mandrel from your rivnut tool into the insert.
Use the tool to pull and set the riv nut, compressing its body to lock it in place.
Remove the tool mandrel. Your threaded rivet is now ready for use.
Important Considerations
A compatible rivet nut tool is mandatory for correct installation. These are not installed with a standard pop rivet tool.
Ensure your workpiece material thickness falls within the specified 0.040”-0.120” grip range for optimal holding strength.
While strong for most uses, aluminum rivet nuts may not be suitable for extreme high-torque applications where steel inserts would be recommended.
