2025 11/20

Rivet nut column, also known as rivet screw column or nut column, is a type of fastener used in sheet metal, thin plate, chassis, and cabinets. Rivet nut columns are divided into four types based on material and internal thread form: quick cut steel through-hole rivet nut column SO type, stainless steel through-hole rivet nut column SOS type, quick cut steel blind hole rivet nut column BSO type, and stainless steel blind hole rivet nut column BSOS type, which are respectively used in different environments.

Technical Guidelines for the Application of Rivet Nut Columns:
 
1. When selecting nut posts, it is necessary to determine the size range based on the thickness of the plate used. The hardness of low-carbon steel plate must be less than 70RB, and the hardness of stainless steel plate must be less than 80RB.
 
2. The surface of the easy to cut iron is treated, and the stainless steel maintains its original color. Users can order according to the model specifications in the table or customize according to their needs.
 
3. The hole size of the board must be processed according to the tolerance size of 0-+0.075mm, and it is recommended to punch.
 
4. Installation must be achieved through "riveting" operation, and must not be impacted or knocked in.
 
5. When selecting stainless steel as the material, the tail number should be indicated with "S".
 
6. The end face of the nut column with straight teeth is represented by "C".
 
7. The length of the through-hole nut column below 10mm is full thread, and above 10mm, it can be enlarged with hexagonal end face square (Type I) or circular end face (Type II).
