FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the knurled body?

The knurled body increases friction against the hole walls, which helps prevent the rivet nut from spinning when you tighten a bolt into it.

Can I use these on plastic materials?

Yes, they can be used in plastics provided the material is thick enough to support the tension and the hole is drilled precisely.

Do I need special equipment to install these?

While simple installation is possible, using a manual or pneumatic rivet nut installation tool is highly recommended for a secure, consistent result.

Are these rivet nuts suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, their corrosion-resistant design makes them a good choice for projects exposed to varying weather conditions.

What does the flat head design do?

The flat head allows the rivet nut to sit flush with the surface of the material, providing a clean look and preventing snags.

Can these be reused?

No, rivet nuts are designed for one-time installation. Once they are set and deformed, they should not be removed and reused.

Troubleshooting

The rivet nut spins in the hole during installation

The hole may be drilled too large. Ensure the drill bit size exactly matches the manufacturer's recommended diameter for the M6 rivet nut.

The fastener does not sit flush against the surface

Ensure the hole is properly countersunk if necessary, or check that there is no debris between the flange and the material.

Threads are difficult to engage with the bolt

Verify that the rivet nut was not deformed or crushed unevenly during the initial setting process.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Flush finish improves the visual quality of the project
  • Knurled body design simplifies installation by preventing rotation
  • High resistance to corrosion ensures long service life
  • Suitable for a wide variety of material types
  • Provides a strong, secure thread for bolt attachment

Cons

  • Requires proper hole sizing to ensure a tight fit
  • Not suitable for extremely thin sheet metal without proper backing
  • Installation requires specific tooling for optimal results

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the JRP Flat Head Rivet Nuts, first drill a hole of the appropriate diameter for an M6 rivet nut. Ensure the material is clean and free of burrs to prevent misalignment. Insert the rivet nut into the hole and use a professional-grade riveting tool to collapse the body; this creates the secure 'bulge' on the backside that locks the nut into the material. Because these are made from corrosion-resistant materials, they require minimal care; however, checking for signs of loosening after heavy vibration or moisture exposure is recommended as part of routine maintenance.
