Rivet Nuts (also known as nut rivets or blind nuts) are cylindrical fasteners with internal threads, designed to create strong, permanent threaded holes in thin sheets of metal, plastic, or composite materials. Installed using a rivet nut tool, they expand when set, securing the nut in place without access to the backside of the material. Manufactured from carbon steel (zinc-plated), stainless steel (304/316), or aluminum, they offer reliable load-bearing capacity and corrosion resistance.
- Material:
- Carbon Steel (Grade 4.8, zinc-plated or black oxide).
- Stainless Steel (304/316, passivated for marine/industrial use).
- Aluminum/Brass: For lightweight or non-magnetic applications.
- Size Range:
- Metric: M3–M12 (ISO 16984, DIN 7337).
- Imperial: #4–1/2" (UNC/UNF, ASME B18.23.1).
- Type:
- Standard: Open end (for general use).
- Closed End: Sealed to prevent debris ingress (ideal for automotive/aerospace).
- Head Style: Countersunk, round head, or flush mount.
- Coating: Zinc plating (RoHS/REACH), Dacromet, or PTFE (low friction).
- Standard Carbon Steel/Zinc-Plated: 5,000 pieces (common sizes like M6/M8 in stock).
- Stainless Steel/Custom Types: 2,000 pieces (e.g., closed-end or large-diameter nuts).
Factory Advantages: ISO-certified production, precision forming (expansion tolerance: ±0.1mm), support for non-standard thread pitches and material thicknesses (0.5–5mm), with lead times of 10–20 days for standard orders.
- Automotive: Securing trim panels, dashboards, and body components.
- Aerospace: Lightweight installations in aircraft cabins and panels.
- Sheet Metal Fabrication: Enclosures, cabinets, and HVAC systems.
- Renewable Energy: Mounting solar panel frames and wind turbine components.
- Blind Installation: No access to the backside, ideal for sealed or hard-to-reach surfaces.
- High Shear/Tensile Strength: Load capacities up to 5,000 N (M10 stainless steel rivet nut).
- Corrosion Resistance:
- 316 stainless steel (1,000+ hours salt spray) for harsh environments.
- Dacromet coating (2,000+ hours salt spray) for heavy-duty applications.
- Non-Standard Sizes: Micro rivet nuts (M2–M3) or oversized threads (M16+).
- Special Coatings: Anti-corrosive (zinc-aluminum), conductive (nickel), or color-matched (RAL tones).
- Application-Specific Designs: Long shank for thick materials or knurled surfaces for enhanced grip.
