Applications & Selection Guide
Zinc-plated carbon-steel cylinder flat-head open-end rivet nuts (blind nuts / nutserts). Installed from one side of a tube or sheet with a rivet-nut tool; the body upsets and leaves a reusable metric internal thread. Open-end, flat head. Listed M5–M10.
The way to put a nut into thin wall tube, cabinets, and sheet too thin to tap. Open-end means a bolt can pass through if the hole behind is clear; closed-end inserts (not this product) seal the hole. Grip range must match sheet thickness — say the material thickness in the enquiry if you are unsure. Not an anchor for concrete.
Select thread size from the table. Quote with quantity, sheet thickness if known, and destination.
