M3 Rivet/Insert Nut SS304 (Dia. 3mm)

ID: 3mm
Material: SS304
Nut Type: Rivet/Insert

The M3 Rivet Nut is 3mm in internal diameter and crafted from high-quality SS304 stainless steel, offering superior durability, corrosion resistance, and reliability in demanding environments. 

A rivet nut gets its name from its dual functionality. Like a rivet, it is designed to be installed from one side of the material, and like a nut, it creates a threaded insert for screws and bolts. The "rivet" action occurs when the rivet nut is compressed, forming a secure connection within the material, while the nut portion allows bolts to be threaded into it, offering a robust fastening point. This design makes it ideal for thin-walled materials where access to both sides is limited.

Applications:

• Aerospace and aviation: For installing threaded connections in thin aircraft panels or body structures.
• Automotive and transportation: Secures components like body panels, dashboards, and interior parts.
• Electronics: Provides threaded fastening points in enclosures, casings, and control boxes.
• Drones and robotics: Attaches equipment or brackets to thin structural parts made of carbon fiber or aluminum.
• Metal fabrication: Allows easy fastening in sheet metal assemblies without needing to weld or access the opposite side.

The Rivet nuts are also known as Insert Nuts.
