In modern manufacturing, many products require strong threaded connections on thin metal sheets, tubes, plastic panels, and composite materials where traditional welding or tapping methods are not practical.
Rivet Nuts, also known as Blind Rivet Nuts, Threaded Inserts, or Nutserts, provide a reliable solution by creating a permanent threaded hole from only one side of the workpiece.
JUXIN FASTENERS is a professional Rivet Nut Manufacturer and Custom Fastener Supplier, specializing in Steel Rivet Nuts, Stainless Steel Rivet Nuts, Aluminum Rivet Nuts, Brass Rivet Nuts, Flange Rivet Nuts, and Custom Threaded Inserts for global OEM customers.
Our rivet nuts are widely used in:
Automotive manufacturing
Electrical equipment
Sheet metal fabrication
Furniture production
Industrial machinery
Medical equipment
Telecommunications cabinets
Aerospace equipment
A Rivet Nut is a threaded fastener installed into thin materials to provide a strong reusable threaded connection.
Unlike conventional nuts that require welding or access from both sides, blind rivet nuts can be installed from one side only, making them ideal for enclosed structures and limited-access applications.
A rivet nut consists of:
Threaded internal hole
Riveting body section
Flange head
Collapsible barrel
During installation, a rivet nut tool pulls the threaded mandrel, causing the body to deform and create a backside bulge that securely clamps the material.
This creates a strong mechanical connection without welding.
The working principle of a blind rivet nut is similar to a combination of a blind rivet and a welded nut.
Installation process:
A suitable hole is prepared in the sheet metal, tube, plastic, or composite material.
The rivet nut is placed into the prepared hole.
A manual, pneumatic, or electric rivet nut tool pulls the threaded mandrel.
The rivet nut body expands and creates a clamping flange behind the material.
The installed rivet nut provides a reusable internal thread for screws and bolts.
Rivet nuts provide significant advantages compared with welding nuts or tapping threads directly into thin materials.
The biggest advantage of blind rivet nuts is that installation only requires access to one side.
Suitable for:
Closed structures
Hollow profiles
Tubes
Enclosures
Thin panels
Rivet nuts create a reinforced threaded connection that improves:
Pull-out resistance
Thread strength
Load capacity
Product durability
Compared with welded nuts, rivet nuts avoid:
Welding deformation
Heat damage
