Flush-Fit Hex Rivet Nut

Flush-fit hex rivet nut: the hexagonal body locates in a shaped hole, so rotation is taken by the hole rather than by friction.

Product overviewOverview

Joint reliability depends on the contact area between bulge and hole wall, the bearing area of the flange, and the strength of the sheet itself. A hex body in a hex hole carries torque on the flats, which is more reliable than knurling in soft or thin sheet. The flush finish means the nut sits level with the surface, so the panel face stays usable and the nut cannot be gripped from outside.

Material: Carbon Steel / Stainless Steel. It is set from one side with a rivet-nut tool.

Key featuresFeatures

  • Hex body in a hex hole takes torque on the flats.
  • Zinc-plated carbon steel or 304/316 stainless, chosen to the environment.
  • Grip range and hole size must match the size table; an oversized hole reduces clamp.
  • Single-side installation with a back-side bulge, suited to closed sections.

Typical applicationsApplications

  • Enclosures and sheet-metal cabinets
  • Automotive body and chassis attachments
  • Rail interior and equipment brackets

Selection notesSelection

The hole has to be formed to the hex; in a round hole the body has no flats to react against and the anti-rotation benefit disappears.

Frequently asked questionsFAQ

Does a flush hex nut need a shaped hole?
Yes. The flats must bear on the hole wall to resist rotation; in a round hole the nut relies only on the bulge and will turn under torque.
What matters during installation of the Flush-Fit Hex Rivet Nut?
Set it from one side with a rivet-nut tool. Hex body in a hex hole takes torque on the flats.
