Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This aluminum rivet nut with ribbed body design addresses critical challenges in metal fabrication and assembly operations. The coarse UNC threading (5/16"-18) combined with Class 2B thread fit ensures rapid installation while maintaining vibration resistance in demanding environments. The ribbed body construction significantly increases surface contact area, distributing load forces evenly to prevent pull-through failures in sheet metal and structural applications. Engineered for material thicknesses ranging from 0.027" to 0.150", this right-hand thread fastener provides reliable blind hole solutions where traditional nuts cannot be accessed. The aluminum material offers an optimal balance of strength and weight savings, making it ideal for automotive, aerospace, and electronic enclosure applications where both performance and regulatory compliance are paramount.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This 5/16"-18 UNC rivet nut maintains Class 2B thread fit tolerances for consistent performance across industrial applications. The fastener features a body diameter of 0.53" with a 0.685" flange diameter and 0.035" flange thickness, engineered for precise installation using a 17/32" drill bit. Manufacturing and material specifications comply with REACH (EC 1907/2006) and RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) environmental standards, ensuring regulatory compliance for global distribution and use in sensitive applications.
