Standard (Heavy Duty) Rivet Nut

The Rivet Nut is a round body, internally threaded, blind fastener. It performs as a rivet to fasten two or more materials together. It also performs as a nut for the attachment of a mating part with a screw. Typical applications can be found in the automotive, recreational vehicle, boating, electronics and appliance industries. The Rivet Nut is offered in an Open End Flat Head version or an Open End Countersunk Head version which installs flush with the surface of the mating material. A Closed End version is available for applications that require a tight seal such as in a fuel tank. A Keyed version is designed to enhance torque resistance. Rivet Nuts are available in aluminum, steel or stainless steel. Unified thread sizes of 4-40, 6-32, 8-32, 10-32, 10-24,1/4-20, 1/4-28, 5/16-18, 5/16-24, 3/8-16, 3/8-24,1/2-13 and 1/2-20 are offered.
