Aluminium rivet nut
High-quality open aluminium blind rivet nuts for industrial fastening
Our open aluminium blind rivet nut is a high-performance internally threaded insert, specifically designed for B2B applications in metalworking, mechanical engineering and thin sheet assembly. This aluminium insert is ideal where access is only possible from one side and provides excellent corrosion resistance and reliable mechanical strength for professional use.
Description
Technical specifications and available types
We supply open aluminium blind rivet nuts in the following configurations:
• Type APH – Flat head: available in metric thread sizes M4 to M8, with a grip range from 0.5 to 6.0 mm.
• Type AFH – Countersunk head: available in metric thread sizes M4 to M8, with a grip range from 1.6 to 6.0 mm.
These blind rivet nuts are engineered for the professional fastening of thin sheet materials such as aluminium or steel and are compatible with manual, pneumatic and hydraulic blind rivet nut installation tools.
What is an open aluminium blind rivet nut?
A blind rivet nut is a hollow threaded insert with a flange, designed to create a strong internal thread in thin materials without requiring rear-side access. Installation is carried out using a dedicated tool that pulls the internal thread towards the flange, causing controlled deformation of the insert and secure mechanical anchoring.
Materials, standards and technical details
• Material: high-quality aluminium alloy, combining low weight, corrosion resistance and solid mechanical performance.
• Thread type: internal metric thread (M4, M5, M6, M8) suitable for industrial fastening applications.
• Grip range: from 0.5 mm to 6.0 mm, ideal for thin sheet constructions and profiles.
• Head types: flat head (APH) or countersunk head (AFH), depending on assembly and finishing requirements.
Industrial applications and B2B solutions
These open aluminium blind rivet nuts are particularly suitable for:
• Mechanical and industrial engineering
• Metal structures and engineering projects
• Automotive and transport applications
• Thin sheet assemblies requiring blind fastening (tubes, profiles, enclosures)
• Situations where a durable and reliable internal thread is required without rear access
Thanks to their versatility and reliability, these blind rivet nuts are a preferred solution for technical buyers, engineers and procurement professionals seeking industrial-grade fastening components.
