Inserts designed to provide load bearing threads in thin sheet materials.
The Avdel Thin Sheet Nutsert® is a blind threaded insert designed to provide load bearing threads in thin sheet materials. The large flange version gives the Thin Sheet Nutsert rivet nut a greater load bearing surface whilst a closed end prevents the ingress of dirt and fluids into the thread and electrical circuits.
- Can be used in very thin sheet materials from 0.50mm (0.02")
- Access needed from only one side of the application, for high speed assembly
- Provides a female thread in application
- Can be installed in pre-coated or post painted applications without damaging the surface
- Various platings available to increase the corrosion resistance
- Low profile head allows near flush fit to application and clamps two or more sheets of material together, within the grip range
- Large flange head provides a load bearing surface and reinforces the hole to prevent push-out. Can be used as a spacer and can be supplied with an under-head seal
