Can you make rivet nuts to OEM drawings?

Yes — including closed-end, sealing and hexagon-body types.

Rivet Nuts

Blind rivet nuts (rivnuts) install from one side to give a strong internal thread in sheet metal, tubes and panels — common in vehicle bodies, seating, racks and enclosures. Flat-head and reduced-head styles with knurled bodies that resist spin-out, M3 to M12, in carbon steel, stainless or aluminium. Steel rivet nuts are supplied with zinc (yellow or clear) or zinc-nickel plating.

Finishes for rivet nuts

Zinc-nickel and zinc are plated on our own line in Ningbo. Other finishes are applied by specialist coaters to the relevant standard.

Finish	Applied	Notes
Zinc plated	Our own line	Clear/blue, yellow or black passivation
Zinc-nickel	Our own line	12–15 µm, clear or black passivation; 1,000 h (12 µm) to 1,440 h (15 µm) neutral salt spray
Stainless (no coating)	Available	A2 (304) / A4 (316) stainless, passivated

For property class 10.9 and above, choose zinc flake, or zinc-nickel with hydrogen-embrittlement relief agreed at order stage.

How to choose

Which grip range?: Choose the body length by total sheet thickness; we send a grip-range table with the quote.
Knurled or smooth body?: Knurled bodies resist rotation in round holes; use hexagon bodies for maximum torque.
