· Product Overview
These zinc-plated carbon steel rivet nuts (also called blind rivet nuts) are essential hardware components engineered to create strong, permanent threaded holes in thin or hollow materials (e.g., sheet metal, plastic panels) where access is only available from one side. Featuring a hexagonal body (for stable tool grip during installation) and a protective zinc-plated finish, these rivet nuts deliver exceptional load-bearing strength, corrosion resistance, and dimensional consistency—making them a reliable choice for industrial, automotive, and DIY assembly projects.
· Core Specifications
- Material: Low-Carbon Steel (1008/1010 Grade) with Clear Zinc PlatingLow-carbon steel balances high tensile strength (supports up to 2000N of clamping force, depending on size) and formability; zinc plating adds corrosion resistance for indoor/outdoor applications.
- Manufacturing Standard: ISO 9001-Certified Cold Heading & Threading Process
- Dimensional Tolerance: ±0.1mm (ensures compatibility with standard rivet tools and mating screws).
- Key Features: Internal UNC/Metric threads (customizable sizes: M3–M12, UNC #4–#10), hexagonal body (for wrench/tool engagement), and flared rivet flange (for secure, flush seating in materials).
· Application Scenarios
These carbon steel rivet nuts are widely used in:
- Sheet Metal Fabrication: Creating threaded holes in industrial enclosures, conveyor frames, or HVAC panels.
- Automotive Assembly: Fastening interior trim, exterior body panels, or undercarriage components.
- Furniture Manufacturing: Securing metal frame joints, cabinet hardware, or shelf brackets.
- Electronic Enclosures: Mounting PCBs, sensors, or control modules in thin-walled device casings.
- DIY & Custom Builds: Adding threaded inserts to custom metal/plastic projects (e.g., workbenches, bike racks).
· Production Process Introduction
- Raw Material Sourcing: Procure low-carbon steel (1008/1010) rods with consistent formability and tensile strength.
- Cold Heading: Use automated cold-heading machines to form the hexagonal body, rivet flange, and base shape (no heat required—preserves material strength).
- Internal Threading: Cut precise UNC/Metric threads via automated tapping tools (ensures thread integrity for secure screw engagement).
- Zinc Plating: Apply a clear zinc coating to the finished rivet nuts (enhances corrosion resistance and adds a uniform silver finish).
- Quality Inspection: Verify thread accuracy (via thread gauges), dimensional fit, and plating coverage; reject defective units.
- Sorting & Packaging: Group rivet nuts by thread size and prepare for bulk packaging.
· Packaging and Shipping Methods
- Packaging: Rivet nuts are sorted by thread size, sealed in anti-rust plastic bags, and packed in corrugated boxes with partitioned compartments (prevents scratching or thread deformation). Small quantities (≤500 pieces) come in labeled plastic containers for easy inventory.
- Shipping: Flexible logistics options include Express Delivery (DHL/FedEx/UPS, 3–5 business days), Air Freight (7–10 business days), or Sea Freight (20–30 business days). All shipments include full tracking and damage insurance.

· Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity): MOQ is 1000 pieces per thread/size specification. Small sample packs (50 pieces) are available for testing.
- Lead Time: Standard lead time is 7–10 working days after order confirmation. Expedited production (5–7 working days) is available for urgent orders (additional fees apply).
- Customization Capability: Full OEM/ODM customization is supported—we can adjust thread size, body length, or plating type (e.g., yellow zinc, black oxide) based on your technical drawings. Our engineering team will confirm design feasibility for production.
