Steel Open End Rivetnuts for Materials up to 5.50mm Thick
The HLOS-CD Hexagon Low Profile Head Open End Rivetnut is designed to provide a strong, reliable threaded insert in materials up to 5.50mm thick. Manufactured from high-quality zinc-plated steel, 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 offer superior resistance to rotation when installed into the correct hexagonal hole, providing a secure fixing for demanding applications. The low profile head sits closer to the material surface than a standard flat head rivetnut, creating a neat, professional finish with minimal protrusion.
Ideal for High Torque and Anti-Rotation Applications
HLOS-CD rivetnuts are ideal for applications where high torque loads or vibration may cause standard round rivetnuts to spin. The hexagonal body provides increased anti-rotation performance, while the low profile head ensures a clean appearance and reduced head height.
