Yes, a rivet nut setting tool or gun is required to properly compress the fastener and create the secure threaded anchor.
They are specifically designed for thin sheet metal, plastics, and fiberglass. They are not recommended for structural use in wood.
These follow standard M8 coarse thread specifications.
These are designed for standard industrial applications; consult the product packaging if you have specific environmental corrosion requirements.
Always refer to the drill bit chart for M8 rivet nuts, as the hole size can vary based on the specific thickness of the material you are riveting.
The hole was likely drilled too large. Ensure you use the drill bit size recommended for your specific material and rivet nut diameter.
The rivet nut may have been slightly compressed out of shape during installation. Check your tool setting pressure or ensure the mandrel is perfectly aligned.
To install these M8 rivet nuts, you must use a compatible rivet nut gun or hand tool calibrated for M8 fasteners. Begin by drilling an appropriately sized hole in your target material—always test on a scrap piece of identical material first to ensure a snug fit. Once the rivet is inserted, the setting tool compresses the body, creating a secure 'bulge' on the blind side that locks the nut in place. For maximum longevity, ensure the setting tool is adjusted for the specific thickness of your material, as over-compressing can distort the threads. Keep the remaining stock in a dry, cool location to prevent surface oxidation or corrosion over long storage periods.
