Blind Rivet Nuts are used in many industries including automotive, HVAC, furniture, military, aerospace, truck & trailer, and agricultural equipment. Some applications are:
• Attaching luggage racks to cars
• Place hinges on a door
• Leg levelers in appliances
• Mount a compressor to a base pan
• Attaching a spoiler to a car
• Attaching components to a hospital bed
RIV-FLOAT® - is a revolutionary patent pending rivet nut with internally floating threads that allow for component attachments in off center applications and can accommodate for tolerance stack up in the manufacturing process. The floating nut (.020” radial float) aligns to drive the angle of the screw and thus eliminates cross threading and spin out. RIV-FLOAT® was designed for post installation in applications where cage nuts, clinch nuts, floating nut plates or weld nuts are typically used.
Sherex LOCSERT® - is a rivet nut with a pre-applied adhesive under the head of the rivet nut. Sherex and Loctite® have worked together to develop this proprietaryadhesive . When the rivet nut is installed, the installation pressure ruptures the Loctite® microcapsules activating the bonding process. The product greatly increases the spin out resistance of the rivet nut.
Sherex Seal2 – Sherex Seal2 has been specifically designed for use as a pre-applied gasket type system for sealing rivets, threaded plugs and bolts. Sherex Seal2 outperforms competitive products in heat resistant, chemical resistance, and operating sealing pressures. The system incorporates a unique material, which is a flexible organic-based product that can replace ‘O’ rings and plastisol as a head sealant in the marketplace.
