Blind rivet nuts have two distinct types. The first is made for round holes and features a knurled or smooth shank. The knurled surface prevents spin-out and provides a firm grip on the installation material. The other type has a closed end and prevents spilled liquid or particle entry.
Blind rivet nuts are often called "threaded inserts" and were invented by BF Goodrich in the 1930s. The unique design features a one-piece construction with a threaded internal thread and an anchoring side. Originally used to secure de-icing boots to aircraft wings, rivnuts are still an important component in the aviation industry today.
Blind Rivet Nuts are often used in applications where access is restricted. They can be used in aerospace, office furniture, solar installations, boat and hot tubs, among many other applications. They are lightweight, easy to make, and inexpensive and are an excellent choice for a variety of materials.
