R-N Series® RivetNut Insert

R-N Series Rivetnut

R-N Series® RivetNut Threaded Insert features a heavy duty head profile and increased wall thickness in the collapse area. This makes the R-N RivetNut ideal for leg leveling.

R-N Series® RivetNut Threaded Insert can be installed using AVK’s SPP™ Pneumatic/Hydraulic Tools. The R-N Insert’s heavier wall thickness and resulting upset load requires this type of tool be used for installation. The R-N Insert can be installed either prior to or after finish.

  • INCREASED PUSH-OUT LOADS are achievable in leg leveling applications when using the R-N Series® due to its heavy duty head profile and thick wall construction.
  • SUPERIOR THREAD STRENGTH is provided due to our internal rolled thread manufacturing process.
  • SUPERIOR CORROSION RESISTANCE is provided by our standard cadmium finish (72 hrs. salt spray).
  • UNIFORM INSTALLATION is guaranteed because of the dimensional tolerances and concentricity tolerances built into our product made possible by our cold forming technology.
  • AVAILABLE in steel and aluminum. For additional materials, Contact AVK for availability.
COLD FORMING TECHNOLOGY™

HOW IT WORKS FOR YOU

The R-N Series® Rivet Nuts are manufactured using state-of-the-art cold forming technology. This provides very precise tolerances. All surfaces of the R-N Series® are FORMED, not machined. This provides excellent quality.

R-N Coldform

The internal thread of the R-N Series® Rivet Nut is roll FORMED not machined. This provides excellent thread strength.

R-N Closed End
Closed End

Thread area is enclosed eliminating leakage past the threads from either side of the application.

R-N Keyed Head
Keyed Head

An underside of the head “key” projection when placed into a matching “keyed” hole design provides additional torque resistance.

R-N Countersunk Head
100° COUNTERSUNK HEAD

A 100° countersunk head profile when installed into a matching countersunk hole provides a flush installation.
