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.
Large flange, knurled body rivnuts are designed for enhanced grip and load distribution, making them ideal for use in soft, thin, or delicate materials.
- Large Flange Head – Spreads the load over a larger surface area, reducing stress on the parent material and preventing pull-through, especially in softer materials.
- Knurled (Round) Body – Features vertical grooves along the body that bite into the parent material, providing increased resistance to spinning during installation and use.
