1/4-20" Screw-to-Install Rivet Nut
The 1/4-20" Screw-to-Install Rivet Nut is an innovative and highly effective fastening solution used to create a durable, load-bearing threaded hole in materials too thin to tap, or where access is limited to only one side of the workpiece. This particular rivet nut is designed for 1/4-20" (quarter-inch, 20 threads per inch) fasteners, making it compatible with standard screws of this size.
Unlike traditional rivet nuts that often require specialized installation tools, this "screw-to-install" type can typically be set using a standard bolt and nut, or a simple hand tool, making installation more accessible. Once installed, it provides a strong internal thread that is resistant to vibration and pull-out.
While specific material is not provided, rivet nuts are commonly made from materials like zinc-plated steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, chosen for their corrosion resistance and strength, ensuring a long-lasting connection. This versatile fastener is ideal for applications in automotive, construction, fabrication, and various industrial settings where adding permanent threads to sheet metal, plastic, or composite materials is required.
