Stainless Steel Open Flat Head Hexagon Rivetnut
The HFOI-J Stainless Steel Open Flat Head Hexagon Rivetnut is designed to provide strong, corrosion-resistant threads in sheet materials where access is only available from one side. Featuring a hexagon body design, this Rivetnut offers outstanding resistance to rotation when installed into a correctly prepared hexagonal hole, making it ideal for demanding applications where secure fastening is essential.
Manufactured from stainless steel with a self-colour finish, the HFOI-J provides excellent durability and long-term corrosion resistance. The flat head design distributes load effectively across the installation surface, while the open-ended body allows full bolt penetration for versatile fastening applications.
