RIVKLE® blind rivet nuts

RIVKLE® blind rivet nuts offer a versatile solution for numerous applications and are available in different materials and designs to meet the specific requirements of your application.

Materials
Steel: Robust and versatile. Corrosion resistant thanks to galvanisation.
Aluminium: Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, ideal for applications where weight is an issue, where weight plays a role.
Stainless steel: Excellent corrosion and temperature resistance, perfect for demanding environments.

Head shapes
Flat head: For a flush and aesthetic finish.
Countersunk head: For recessed and smooth installation.
Extra small countersunk head: For applications with limited space.

Shank ends
Open: Standard version for general applications.
Closed: Provides additional protection against dirt and moisture.

Shank shapes
Round shank, smooth: For general applications.
Round shank, knurled: Provides additional holding power.
Hexagonal shank: Prevents twisting in the hole.
Partial hexagonal shank: Combines the advantages of round and hexagonal shanks.
 

You can use RIVKLE® SFC, Smart For Composite, to insert load-bearing threads in plastics and composite materials without damaging them.

Working principle

• The basic principle is that the load is specifically distributed in the direction of the thread axle with no radial stress.

Versions

• RIVKLE® SFC is available in various versions in steel and stainless steel (A4).

To protect your assemblies from external influences, RIVKLE® Seal Ring technology ensures a tight seal against all fluids and gases.

Advantages

• The seal is securely bonded to the RIVKLE® blind rivet nut. It remains in place under all circumstances, including during automatic setting with a blow feed unit
• Tightness in compliance with standard ISO 20653, specification IPX7
• UV resistance and temperature resistance up to 220°C
• Resistance to all fluids (oils, hydrocarbons, etc.)

Our high-strength RIVKLE® HRT (high resistance thread) blind rivet nuts provide an extremely strong load-bearing thread which considerably improves the mechanical properties of the blind rivet nut. 

Versions

• Steel and aluminium

Advantages compared to RIVKLE® Standard

• Higher tightening torques permit higher preload forces in the joint
• Smaller sizes possible
• Reduced weight
• Corrosion-resistant and recyclable, particularly in aluminium components (RIVKLE® HRT Aluminium)

The RIVKLE® Seal Ring Aluminium HRT technology is the latest generation solution for battery tray joining, meeting the most demanding requirements.

Advantages

• Significant weight savings through its aluminium design (2.5 times lighter than a steel fastener, with equivalent design)
• Ideal for electrical environments as there is no risk of metal oxidation due to its aluminium construction.
• Aluminium/aluminium joints can be easily recycled, eliminating the need to separate materials

Versions

• Steel (aluminium and stainless steel on request)

Advantages compared to RIVKLE® Standard

• High pull-out forces
• RIVKLE® PN has the largest clamping range of all blind rivet nuts for variable material thicknesses
• Large clamping range to reinforce workpiece
• Low radial stresses during setting prevent excessive loading of the component
• Low radial stresses in the component

RIVKLE® blind rivet studs allow you to prefix the screw-on component to the carrier component. This is particularly helpful for heavy or large parts or with concealed assembly (“hang on” assembly). Our blind rivet studs are available in different versions
