S-94430A221 8-32 x 0.42" Rivet Nuts

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Enhanced pull-out resistance from ribbed body design, ensuring secure fastening in metal assemblies
• Lightweight yet durable construction using aluminum material, ideal for applications requiring corrosion resistance without added weight
• Wide material compatibility with thicknesses from 0.020" to 0.080", offering flexibility across various metal fabrication projects
• Reliable coarse UNC threading (8-32 size) for quick installation and reduced cross-threading risks in high-vibration environments
• Precision Class 2B thread fit guarantees consistent engagement and minimizes assembly errors
• Flanged design (0.39" diameter) distributes load evenly, preventing surface damage and improving joint integrity
• Compliance with REACH and RoHS 3 standards ensures environmental safety and meets global regulatory requirements

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This aluminum ribbed rivet nut with 8-32 UNC coarse thread is engineered to solve common industrial challenges like material fatigue and installation inefficiency. Its ribbed body bites securely into pre-drilled holes (using a standard 17/64" drill bit), providing exceptional resistance to rotation and pull-out forces in metal applications such as automotive frames, electronic enclosures, and machinery panels. The right-hand thread direction and open end type facilitate straightforward tool access and speedy installations, reducing labor time. Made from lightweight aluminum, it prevents galvanic corrosion when paired with dissimilar metals, while the 0.27" body diameter and 0.39" flange offer a balanced profile for space-constrained assemblies. Ideal for securing components in sheet metal ranging from 0.020" to 0.080" thickness, this rivet nut enhances structural reliability and streamlines production workflows.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This rivet nut adheres to UNC coarse thread standards with a precise Class 2B thread fit for consistent performance. Key dimensions include a body diameter of 0.27", flange diameter of 0.39", and installed length of 0.305". It is fully compliant with REACH (EC 1907/2006) and RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) regulations, ensuring it meets stringent environmental and safety criteria for industrial use.
