Wodecy company also maintains a large range of products that are manufactured in its factories in Asia and sold throughout Europe.
The rivet nut is a mechanical fastener that provides strong threads where tapping is not possible due to thin sheet thickness or thin material. The most popular method for making rivets is cold forming, but in some cases, for prototypes and short runs, they can be made by turning. One of the most common uses for these rivets is in the automotive industry, as different components can be manufactured at different levels.
Initially, the first rivets had cylindrical bodies, but as industry requirements changed, new designs were developed, including hexagonal, semi-hexagonal, square, and triangular, among others. The principle of use is the same as that of the first rivet – ensuring a strong thread.
There are other solutions for threading details, but in general, rivet nuts have excellent technical characteristics and a wide range of sizes, materials and types. In addition, rivet nuts provide a fast installation process, making them a better choice than other more expensive and difficult-to-install products.
Before installing rivet nuts, the following should be taken into account – hole diameter, hole shape, sheet material and sheet thickness. The answer will show which type of rivet nut should be selected. Another thing to keep in mind before installing rivet nuts is the type of tool being used and the end use.
There are various methods and equipment for installing rivet nuts, including hand tools, battery tools, and pneumatic tools. Automatic systems are also available if a large number of rivet nuts need to be installed.
