Overview
A rivet nut (insert nut) gives a strong, reusable thread in sheet metal, tube or plastic that is too thin to tap. It is fitted from one side with a hand or pneumatic tool. The thin reduced head sits almost flush with the panel. The half-hex body sits in a hex hole and resists spinning under torque. Also made with a closed end: the closed end seals the thread against water, dust and paint, and protects parts behind the panel. Pick the end in the size list.
The open end lets a longer screw pass right through. Available from M3 to M12 with grip ranges from 0.5 mm to 6 mm. Each part number covers a set range of sheet thickness and has its own overall length (L), shown in the table.

How it works
A rivet nut gives a strong, reusable thread in sheet metal, tube or plastic that is too thin to tap, and it is fitted from one side only. Here is how this nut goes in.
Half-hex body
Hexagonal under the head, round at the threaded end. It locks in a hex hole like a full-hex nut, and the round lower part folds evenly into a strong collar.
Choosing the grip
Each part number sets in a range of sheet thickness (the grip). Pick the part whose grip covers your sheet: too thin and the collar will not clamp, too thick and the nut cannot fold. The hole size is in the table.
Open or closed end
Open end: the thread runs right through, so a longer bolt can pass. Closed end: the end is sealed, keeping water, dust and paint out of the thread and protecting parts behind the panel. Pick the end in the size list above.
Head
Reduced head: a thin, small head that stands only a fraction of a millimetre above the surface.
Setting tools
Set with a hand, pneumatic-hydraulic or battery tool fitted with the matching mandrel. See our riveting tools.
