How to choose rivet nut to suit oneself?

Today small make up for you to introduce a few choice riveting nut factors, only a comprehensive understanding, can find a good riveting program.

The five main areas you need to consider are:

Thread size:

You may only need to use rivet nuts to replace existing threads so that you can use them like a similar thread size. If the installation is new, then it is worth studying the surrounding area to ensure that rivet nuts of appropriate size can be installed without compromising blind side bulges and anchoring capability. Of course, heavy duty applications certainly require larger rivet nuts to accommodate larger thread sizes.

Material:

You need to consider the corrosion resistance and the direct environment the rivet nuts will undergo. The three main materials we offer are CR3 plated steel, stainless steel and aluminum.

Size:

Rivet nuts have round, hexagonal or hexagonal bodies. For most people who do not handle hexagon holes, round rivet nuts come in two styles, these are round (plain) and spline. The spline body inherently makes a good purchase of the surrounding material - it all depends on how hard you like to install it.

The first type:

The head shape (or flange) varies in diameter and thickness, and your proximity requirements for fittings and components will determine the degree of "detachable", which will be a prerequisite for your choice of riveting nuts. For example, if you are installing a panel, you may need flush/sheet heads.

5. Material thickness (clamping range) :

Most applications require only the standard fixture range of most riveting nuts. Under special circumstances, we can provide a long time grip if necessary.
