A Bollhoff RIVNUT® fastener is a tubular rivet with internal threads. It can be installed in seconds from one side of the work. Once installed, no finishing work is required on the Bollhoff RIVNUT® fastener. As an added benefit of not only being a dependable fastener, they are ready to use with clean threads available for screw attachments.
A Rivnut fastener is installed with a hand or power tool. The pull-up stud of the tool engages the threads of the Rivnut fastener and exerts a pull causing the shank to expand tightly against the material being fastened. This process is called “upsetting” the Rivnut.
