Aluminium Open Hexagon Rivetnuts for Materials up to 6.00mm Thick
The HFOA-G Aluminium Open Hexagon Rivetnut is designed to provide a lightweight yet reliable threaded insert in materials up to 6.00mm thick. Manufactured from high-quality aluminium, these rivetnuts create durable, reusable metric threads without the need for welding, tapping, or access to the reverse side of the material.
Featuring a hexagon body, these rivetnuts provide excellent resistance to rotation when installed into a correctly sized hexagonal hole. The flat head design offers maximum load distribution across the material surface, helping to create a secure and dependable fastening solution for a wide range of applications.
Ideal for Lightweight and Anti-Rotation Applications
HFOA-G rivetnuts are ideal for applications where weight reduction and anti-rotation performance are important. The hexagonal body helps prevent spin-out under load, while the aluminium construction offers excellent corrosion resistance and ease of installation.
