Threaded Rivet Nuts
Heavy-duty
Atlas MaxTite threaded rivet nuts feature a thicker head and a
heavier wall than standard rivet nuts for use in demanding
high-load applications. These fasteners are designed to provide
strong, permanent metal threads in blind attachment applications
where only one side of a work piece is accessible for fastener
installation and final component assembly. They can serve as
practical alternatives to tapped holes, weld nuts, rivets, and
self-drilling or tapping screws. Installed from the accessible
front side of a work piece, the nuts can be utilized in panels as
thin as 0.20 in. Their use eliminates any need for additional
hardware beyond a mating screw to complete component attachment.
Available types include flathead and countersunk with the
countersunk feature enabling the fastener to be installed flush
with the surface of a sheet. Rib or key features are offered for
high-torque applications. Thread sizes range from #4-40 through
1 /2 in.-13 and M3 through M12. The nuts can be
installed permanently anywhere and at any stage in the shop or
field utilizing handheld portable tools.
