China Factory Open End Reduced Head Half Hex Rivet Nuts

China Factory Open End Reduced Head Half Hex Rivet Nuts

Half hex rivet nut features that they resist turning. Sometimes round body rivet nuts turn in the hole when force is used to unscrew the bolt, or turning is caused by high vibrations. The hexagonal shaft prevents this turning, making this type of rivet nut widely preferred for repair and servicing work. 

Rivet nuts are versatile fasteners that can solve complex fastening problems without requiring any additional finishing work. They come in various materials such as aluminum, steel, stainless steel, and sometimes brass. Round body rivet nuts have unique features like an externally knurled body for increased spin-out resistance or an external "key" feature under the head for even better spin-out resistance. Alternatively, a hex body rivet nut provides superior spin-out resistance. Rivet nuts typically have a tapered shank for easy automation and hole insertion. Some rivet nuts also have internal rolled threads to enhance thread strength. In various industries, including automotive, appliance, food equipment, and aerospace, manufacturers rely on rivet nuts as their go-to fasteners when attaching secondary components to the parent application. Compared to alternatives like weld nuts, nut and bolts, and press-in inserts, rivet nuts offer significant productivity gains.

Rivet Nuts Are Used In A Variety Of Industries:

Advantages of Rivet Nuts

• Provide a strong thread in thin materials
• Perfect for effortless disassembling and reassembling of goods,
• install in a diverse range of materials: steel, plastic, fiberglass, and beyond,
• Once installed, additional threaded components can be attached 
• Preserves the integrity of pre-painted material during installation,
• An exemplary alternative to weld nut,
• Enhances efficiency with a straightforward installation,
• Does not compromise the structural integrity of the underlying material,

Selecting A Blind Rivet Nut

• Thread size: rivet nuts range from M3 to M12 thread sizes dependent upon the rivet nut.
• Grip range: The blind rivet nut should be selected to ensure that the thicknesses of the parent material(s) falls within the grip range.
• Hole size: This is specified on the relevant technical data page for the rivet nut. Allowance for coating the parent material should be made to avoid an undersized hole.
• Special features: Additional features such as low profile, large flange, closed end and countersunk are available within the standard range of products. 
• Torque-to-turn: Resistance is dependent upon the body shape and increases in the series: round, splined, hexagonal and square
• Corrosion resistance : The selection of the material type and coating of the rivet nut should be made on the basis of the corrosion resistance required.
