​The Rivet Nut Installation Process

​Pilot Hole Preparation: A hole is drilled into the material to match the exact outer diameter of the rivet nut sleeve.

​Mandrel Threading: The rivet nut is hand-threaded onto the mandrel of the installation tool until it sits flush against the tool's nosepiece.

​The "Pull-Up" Stroke: As the tool's handles are squeezed, the mandrel pulls the internal threads of the nut toward the surface.

​Mechanical Collapse: The unthreaded portion of the sleeve bulges outward on the blind side of the material, "sandwiching" the metal and locking the nut permanently in place.

​Clean Release: The mandrel is unthreaded from the newly installed nut, leaving behind a clean, threaded hole ready for a bolt or screw.


Pro Tips for Perfect Threads
​Mastering the Rivnut

​Don't Over-Squeeze: If you apply too much force with a manual tool, you can "strip" the internal threads of the nut before you even use it.

​Match Your Drill Bit: Rivet nuts require a very tight tolerance; use a high-quality cobalt drill bit to ensure the hole isn't "oversized," which would allow the nut to spin.

​Material Thickness: Check the "grip range" of your rivet nuts. If the nut is too long for the material thickness, it won't collapse tightly enough to prevent spinning.

​Add a Drop of Oil: A tiny drop of machine oil on the tool's mandrel threads will make unthreading the tool much smoother and extend the life of your equipment.
