The rivet nut column, also known as rivet stud or nut column,is a standard part applied to sheet metal parts, sheet metal, mainframe box, and server cabinet. The appearance design of the rivet nut column is hexagonal at one end, and cylindrical at the other end. There is a undercut groove in the middle of the hexagon and cylindrical, in which the thread is the thread, According to the press, the hexagon head is pressed into the preset hole wall of the sheet (the diameter of the preset hole is generally slightly larger than the cylinder diameter of the rivet stud) to cause plastic deformation near the hole. A part of the deformation is squeezed into the undercut of the rivet nut column, so that the rivet nut column is riveted tightly on the sheet, and a reasonably fixed thread is generated on the sheet.
Proper application of riveting nuts will increase the service life. Today, I will show you how to properly apply the riveting nuts so as not to reduce the service life of riveting standard parts?
1、 Be sure to observe the installation hole of the specified size of each riveted fastener.
2、 Ensure that the bottom end (or guide groove) of the riveted fastener is in the setting hole before applying the setting force.
3、 Ensure that the fastening force is applied between the parallel faces. The purpose of the fastening force is to block the torsion during the use of fixed fasteners and assembly.
4、 Make sure that sufficient force is applied to fully embed the snap ring along all the edges and make the convex table just contact with the plate.
