Key Features & Benefits
Durable 304 Stainless Steel: Manufactured from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel, these riv nuts are ideal for applications requiring long-term reliability in various environments, resisting rust and oxidation.
Secure Knurled Grip: The knurled body design provides enhanced resistance to rotation during and after installation with a rivet nut tool, ensuring a solid, non-spinning anchor in the workpiece.
Creates Reliable Threaded Points: This 1/4-20 rivet nut is designed to form a permanent, strong internal thread in sheet metal, panels, or tubing where only one side is accessible, functioning as a robust threaded rivet.
Standard Tool Compatibility: Installs using a common rivnut tool. The tool pulls the insert, causing it to expand and lock securely into place, creating a vibration-resistant fastener.
Common Applications
General Fabrication & Repair: Ideal for creating sturdy threaded connections in metalworking, automotive panels, machinery frames, and electronic enclosures.
Industrial & DIY Use: Suitable for a wide range of projects in construction, furniture assembly, and equipment maintenance where a reliable nutsert is required.
Installation & Important Notes
Tool Required: Proper installation requires a compatible rivet nut tool. Standard pop rivet tools are not suitable for installing this type of rivet nuts.
Preparation: Drill a clean hole of the correct size (typically 8.8mm / 0.346” for this thread size) in the workpiece before installation.
Inspection: Always ensure the rivnut is fully set and secure before applying load to the threaded connection.
