Screw-to-Install Rivet Nuts
Install a rivet nut with only a screw—no special installation tool required. Also known as jack nuts, these rivet nuts have large slits in the body that collapse and flare out to create a flange on the back of your material as you thread in a screw. That backside flange distributes force, so these rivet nuts won't pull through thin material. Use them to add reusable threads to sheet metal and other material that can't be tapped. Unlike press-fit nuts, you only need access to one side to install. They're zinc-plated, so they resist corrosion in wet environments. Length is measured from under the flange.
For even quicker installation than threading a screw, use a rivet nut tool.

Sealing Screw-to-Install Rivet Nuts
To block out moisture and resist corrosion in wet environments, these steel rivet nuts have an acrylic-coated flange and a zinc-plated body. Install them in sheet metal with only a screw, no special tools required. As you thread the screw in, large slits on the body collapse and flare out, creating a flange on the back of your material. That backside flange distributes force, so these rivet nuts won't pull through thin surfaces. They add permanent threads into material that’s too thin to be tapped. Installation requires access to only one side of your surface.
For even quicker installation than threading a screw, use a rivet nut tool. Length is measured from under the flange.

Scratch-Resistant Screw-to-Install Rivet Nuts
A PVC coating minimizes scratches to the surface of your material and makes these rivet nuts more corrosion resistant than zinc-plated steel nuts. Install these nuts in sheet metal with only a screw, no special tools required. Large slits in the body collapse and flare out as you thread the screw in, creating a flange on the back of your material. That backside flange distributes force, preventing these rivet nuts from pulling through thin surfaces. They add permanent threads into material that’s too thin to be tapped. Installation requires access to only one side of your surface.
For even quicker installation than threading a screw, use a rivet nut tool. Length is measured from under the flange.

Rivet Nuts for Plastic and Composites
Add strong, permanent threads to plastic and composites. As you install these rivet nuts, a large backside flange forms to distribute loads across a broad area. Installation requires access to only one side of your material. Secure them in a drilled or punched round hole in thin surfaces with a rivet nut tool. Made of zinc yellow-chromate-plated steel, these nuts are suitable for wet environments.
Length is measured from under the flange. Installed length is the maximum length of the barrel when installed.
