Rivet Nuts for Plastic and Composites
Once installed these rivet nuts have a large back flange that distributes the load across a broad area for a strong hold in plastic and composites. Install them in a drilled hole with a wrench- or power-driven rivet nut tool. Length is measured from under the flange. Installed length is the maximum length of the barrel when installed.

Screw-to-Install Rivet Nuts
These rivet nuts are zinc plated for mild corrosion resistance. They're also known as jack nuts. Large slits in the body allow these rivet nuts to collapse and flare when you fasten them with a screw. A backside flange distributes the force to resist pull-through in thin metals. For quicker installation, use a rivet nut tool. Length is measured from under the flange.

Sealing Screw-to-Install Rivet Nuts
A coated flange seals out moisture and offers corrosion resistance. Large slits in the body allow these rivet nuts to collapse and flare when you fasten them with a screw. They have a backside flange that distributes force to resist pull-through in thin metals. For quicker installation, use a rivet nut tool. Length is measured from under the flange.

Light Duty Plier-Style Rivet Nut Tools
Install screw-to-install rivet nuts and rivet nuts for plastic and composites. Thread the rivet nut onto the pull rod (required, sold separately), insert the nut into the hole, and squeeze the handles to secure the nut. Friction wrenches designed to hold the nut head during installation are also available and sold separately.
Tools for Blind Rivets and Rivet Nuts
This tool has changeable nosepieces, anvils, and pull-up studs for installing rivets and rivet nuts. A self-contained hydraulic system delivers additional force to make installation easier. Choose the attachment that matches your rivet's 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's body, creating a secure hold on both sides of the material, and breaks off the excess mandrel.
Pull-up studs and driving anvils for 6-32 to 3/8"-16 and M3 to M10 rivet nuts are sold separately.
