    Tight-Space Rivet Nuts

    Add threads to sheet metal and panels in confined spaces with limited backside clearance. At installation, these compact nuts collapse into themselves and press slightly outward, creating snug-fitting threads half the length of a standard nut but just as strong. With a thin top flange that creates a near-flush fit, they're ideal for light duty fastening in small enclosures or housings.
    Install these nuts using a hand- or power-driven rivet nut tool. In thick material, drill or punch a slightly larger hole to ensure the nut body expands uniformly.
    Cadmium-Plated Steel—Twice as strong as aluminum rivet nuts. The plating resists rust and helps the nut collapse without friction during installation.
    Tin Zinc-Plated Steel—Twice as strong as aluminum rivet nuts. The plating resists rust and helps the nut collapse without friction during installation. It's also nontoxic, unlike cadmium plating.
    Cadmium-Plated Aluminum—The plating resists rust and helps the nut collapse without friction during installation.
    Tin Zinc-Plated Aluminum—The plating resists rust and helps the nut collapse without friction during installation. It's also nontoxic, unlike cadmium plating.
    Tin-Plated 18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these nuts resist rust and mild chemicals. The tin plating helps the nut collapse without friction during installation.

    Tight-Space Rivet Nut Assortments with Installation Tools

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Rivet Nuts. Tight-Space Rivet Nut Assortments with Installation Tools.
    Keep different sizes of rivet nuts on hand to add threads to material in confined spaces. At installation, the compact body of these nuts collapses into itself and presses slightly outward, creating snug-fitting threads that are half the length of a standard nut but just as strong.
    To install, thread the nut onto the mandrel, place it into a hole, push down, and turn the installation tool's T-handle.
    Tin Zinc-Plated Steel—Twice as strong as aluminum rivet nuts. The plating resists rust and helps the nut collapse without friction during installation. It's also nontoxic, unlike cadmium plating.

    Pistol Grip

    Angle Grip

    Use compressed air to install rivet nuts with less effort than manual tools. Tailored to specific thread sizes, these tools rotate a rivet nut with the exact force needed to collapse it onto your workpiece. They’re smaller and lighter than other powered rivet nut tools, so you can squeeze them into tighter spaces. However, they generate less force, so they’re not recommended for installing nuts into thick materials.
    Angle Grip—Angle grip tools fit into tighter spaces than pistol grip tools.

    Install blind rivets and rivet nuts with the same tool. These sets come with the nosepieces and mandrels needed to install the most common sizes of blind rivets and rivet nuts. Additional mandrels and nosepieces are sold separately. Choose the attachment that matches your rivet diameter or nut thread size.
    To install a rivet, insert the mandrel into the nosepiece of the tool. Place the rivet in the material and squeeze the handles. The tool pulls the mandrel through the rivet body to tighten it on both sides of the material, then breaks off the excess mandrel. To install a rivet nut, thread the rivet nut onto the mandrel, insert the nut into a drilled hole, and squeeze the handles to secure the nut.

    Air-Powered Rivet Nut Tools

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Rivet Nut Tools. Air-Powered Rivet Nut Tools.
    Install any size or style of rivet nut with a single tool. When you connect these tools to your compressed air line, the hydraulic fluid inside is pressurized, which generates the force needed to collapse a rivet nut. They’re also known as hydropneumatic rivet nut tools. Rather than rotating the rivet nut, like single-size rivet nut tools, these tools pull it straight back. This means you can adjust the pulling force or stroke depth to match your application. Set the pulling force if you’re installing rivet nuts into workpieces with different thicknesses. Set the stroke depth to install rivet nuts in soft or fragile materials without cracking or warping the surface.
    75 to 100 psi—1/4 NPT Air Connection
    7,190 lbf Pulling Force—Use tools with a 7,190 lbf. pulling force to install rivet nuts made from hard materials, such as titanium. They’re also good for large nut sizes. However, they take about three times longer to install a nut than tools with a 3,960 lbf. pulling force.
