The most corrosion resistant low-profile rivet nuts we offer, these stand up to chemicals. They're often used for light duty fastening in low-clearance applications. The threaded portion is drawn into the sleeve when installed, creating pressure against the hole to secure the nut. The tin-plating provides lubricity allowing the nut to collapse smoothly. Drill bit size listed in the table is for material with a 0.030"-0.090" thickness. These rivet nuts can be installed in thicker material, but may require larger holes. Install them using a hand- or power-driven rivet nut tool. Length is measured from under the flange. Installed length is the maximum length of the barrel when installed.

These low-profile rivet nuts are one-third the weight of steel rivet nuts. They have a low profile for light duty fastening in low-clearance applications. A cadmium or tin-zinc plating provides corrosion resistance and adds lubricity so they collapse smoothly. The threaded portion is drawn into the sleeve when installed, creating pressure against the hole to secure the nut. Drill bit size listed in the table is for material with a 0.030"-0.090" thickness. These rivet nuts may be installed in thicker material, but may require larger holes. Install them using a hand- or power-driven rivet nut tool. Length is measured from under the flange. Installed length is the maximum length of the barrel when installed.

Create threads in hard-to-work areas—where you can’t reach the back of a workpiece, or material is too thin to be tapped. For a strong grip, these nuts have distorted threads that increase friction with bolts. Because they mount with two rivets, they won’t spin when you’re tightening screws. However, these nuts do move inside their retainers, which lets you install bolts at a slight angle; use them to align with off-center parts. All meet military guidelines for dimensions and material.

Cadmium-plated nuts resist corrosion in industrial and saltwater environments, although will lose their corrosion resistance over 450° F. The cadmium plating also adds lubricity, making these nuts easy to install.

A286 stainless steel nuts are corrosion resistant. Silver-plated stainless steel nuts withstand temperatures up to 800° F. The silver plating also adds lubricity and prevents seizing caused by friction between nuts and bolts.

Lubricated nuts thread onto bolts smoothly.

Use these tools to install most styles of rivet nuts. A wrench and ratchet are required to hold the tool and tighten the nut.

Turn these tools by hand to install low-profile rivet nuts. The required mandrels are sold separately. To use, thread the nut onto a mandrel of the same size, then place it into a hole, push down on the tool's T-handle, and turn clockwise.

Smaller and lighter than cordless and hydraulic rivet nut tools, use these to install thin-walled bulbed, ribbed, sleeve, and smooth rivet nuts. To use, thread the nut onto the included mandrel and press the trigger to spin the nut onto the tool. Place the nut into the material and press the trigger to install the nut. Press the trigger one more time to spin the mandrel off.

Quickly install all styles of rivet nuts at 1.5-second intervals. The tool includes nosepiece assemblies to install M4, M5, M6, and M8 rivet nuts (additional sizes sold separately). To use, thread the nut onto the included mandrel and press the trigger to spin the nut onto the tool. Place the nut into the material and press the trigger to install the nut. Press the trigger one more time to spin the mandrel off.
