Application and functionality

The knurled rivet nut M8x22mm is designed to create strong, reliable threaded connections in materials with a thickness between 5.0 and 8.0 mm. Thanks to the blind riveting principle, it is possible to achieve a solid fastening without access to the rear side of the workpiece.

Features of the rivet nut

• Thread size: M8
• Length: 22 mm
• Clamping range: Suitable for material with a thickness of 5.0 to 8.0 mm
• Material: Steel with electrolytic zinc plating for improved corrosion resistance
• Outer diameter: 15.5 mm
• Drill diameter: 10.9 mm
• Head height: 1.5 mm

Advantages of the knurled shaft

The knurled shaft of this rivet nut provides extra grip in the drilled hole, minimizing the risk of spinning during installation. This results in a stable and durable connection, even under vibrations or dynamic loads.

Installation process

Installing this rivet nut requires a suitable rivet nut tool. The process includes:

1. Preparation: Drill a hole with a diameter of 10.9 mm in the workpiece.
2. Placement: Insert the rivet nut into the drilled hole.
3. Fastening: Use the rivet nut tool to deform the nut and anchor it firmly in the material.

Areas of application

This rivet nut is ideal for use in:

• Automotive sector: Fastening components in bodywork and interiors.
• Metalworking: Creating threaded connections in thin metal sheets.
• Construction sector: Installing cladding and other building materials.

Packaging and availability

The rivet nuts are supplied in packs of 100 pieces, making them suitable for both small and large projects. They are available directly from stock, so you can quickly get started with your fastening tasks.
