Description
What is a blind rivet nut?
A blind rivet nut is a metal threaded bushing with a collar that allows for a sturdy internal thread to be obtained in very thin sheet material, tubes or profiles.
The blind rivet nut is deformed using a manual tool, electric or a pneumatic gun for blind rivet nuts by pulling the internal thread away from the collar after this blind rivet nut has been placed in the provided hole in the sheet. Once the blind rivet nut is riveted, the threaded rod of the tool must be unscrewed. In this way, an internal thread can be provided "blindly" in thin sheet, in other words, without accessing both sides of the sheet. This makes it the ideal solution for pipes and profiles.
Waterproof rivet nut
The Deform-Nut® 10446-X.W is a rivet nut that has a heat shrinked tube of polyolefin underneath the head that reaches a IP68 level and ensures no electrical conductivity so is ideal for composite applications as well.
Attention during assembly: Ensure that when screwing the blind rivet nut onto the threaded rod of the installation tool or rivet nut gun, the threaded rod does NOT touch the nylon ring to avoid compromising the waterproof seal!
