Rivet nut, also known as rivet nut or compression nut, is a special type of fastener widely used in various fields such as machinery, electronics, automotive, aerospace, etc. The following is a detailed description of the rivet nut:
1, Basic Structure
Rivet nuts are usually composed of a nut body and a rivet part (such as rivet feet or rivet rings). The nut body has standard internal threads for mating with bolts or screws. The riveting part is designed with special shapes, such as petal shaped, cylindrical, etc., to firmly embed into the substrate during the riveting process.
2, Working principle
The working principle of rivet nuts is to use specialized rivet tools to press the nuts into pre drilled holes. During the riveting process, the riveting part will undergo plastic deformation and tightly adhere to the hole wall of the substrate, thereby forming a firm connection. This connection method not only has high tensile and shear resistance, but also effectively prevents the nut from loosening in vibration or impact environments.
3, Characteristics and advantages
1. Easy installation: The installation process of rivet nuts is simple and fast, without the need for complex processes such as threading or welding, greatly improving production efficiency.
2. Reliable connection: Due to the tight mechanical lock formed between the rivet nut and the substrate, the connection strength is high and can withstand large tensile and shear forces.
3. Good anti loosening effect: The special structure of the rivet nut makes it difficult to loosen during use, and it can maintain a stable connection state even in vibration or impact environments.
4. Wide applicability: Rivet nuts are suitable for various metal plates, plastic parts and other substrates, and are not limited by the thickness and hardness of the substrate.
5. Beautiful and durable: The outer surface of the rivet nut can be treated with anti-corrosion treatments such as galvanizing and nickel plating, which not only looks beautiful and generous, but also extends its service life.
4, Application scenarios
Rivet nuts are widely used in applications that require fast and reliable connections, such as automotive bodies, electronic device casings, aerospace structural components, etc. In these fields, rivet nuts have become one of the indispensable fasteners due to their unique advantages.
In summary, rivet nuts are fasteners with advantages such as high efficiency, reliability, and aesthetics, and have broad application prospects in various fields such as machinery, electronics, automotive, aerospace, etc. With the advancement of technology and continuous improvement of processes, the performance and application scope of rivet nuts will also continue to expand and improve.
