I. Definition of Metric Rivet Nuts
A metric rivet nut is a threaded fastener consisting of a nut body and a rivet inside the nut. Its function is to secure the nut to the components being connected through the internal rivet, achieving a secure connection.
II. Types of Metric Rivet Nuts
1. Standard Metric Rivet Nuts: Commonly used for general fasteners, they offer strong fastening force and prevent loosening.
2. Thin Metric Rivet Nuts: More compact, suitable for applications where space is limited or lightweight is required.
3. Horizontal Metric Rivet Nuts: They offer high sealing and waterproof properties, suitable for connections requiring waterproofing.
III. Precautions for Using Metric Rivet Nuts
1. Select the appropriate model and specifications to ensure they can withstand the forces and loads required by the connection.
2. Before use, inspect the nut and rivet to ensure they are intact and free of damage or deformation.
3. Tighten the rivet nut moderately; overtightening or undertightening will shorten the service life of the connection. 4. During use, the tightness of the rivet nuts should be checked regularly and adjusted and reinforced in time.
