Rivnuts (also known as nutserts, blind nuts, or threaded inserts) are a fast, reliable, and cost-effective way to create strong, load-bearing threads to thin or brittle materials—especially when access to the back is limited. They are installed into a parent material, allowing a secondary component to be securely bolted in place.
Designed as a variation of a standard rivet, rivnuts feature a tubular body (round, knurled or hexagonal) with internal threading. They can be installed in sheet materials as thin as 0.50mm and offer one-sided (blind) installation, making them a versatile solution for many applications.
Reduced Head, Full Hexagonal Body and Closed End rivnuts
offer a strong, non-rotating, and sealed fastening solution, making them ideal for applications requiring a low-profile finish, high torque resistance, and protection from contaminants.
- Reduced Head – A smaller, lower-profile head allows for a more flush installation, making it ideal for tight spaces or applications where a standard flange head would interfere with surrounding components.
- Full Hexagonal Body – Designed to fit into a hexagonal hole, this shape provides superior resistance to spinning, especially in high-vibration environments or applications requiring higher torque.
- Closed End – Seals off the back of the rivnut, preventing dirt, moisture, or contaminants from passing through, protecting both the fastener and internal components from corrosion and debris.
