A blind rivet consists of a body and a mandrel. Anaerobic sealant stays liquid while it is exposed to air and cures once the joint excludes oxygen against a metal surface, which is exactly the condition inside a set rivet nut. Cure is incomplete if the clearance is too large or the surfaces are oily, so hole fit and cleanliness come before sealant choice.
installed by set from one side with a rivet tool.
Select on grip range plus hole size: the grip range must span the actual panel thickness, and the hole is drilled to the body diameter.
