DESCRIPTION
Discover about Reduced Head Hexagon Rivet Nuts
Experience the Stainless Steel Reduced Head Hexagon Rivet Nuts from RivetGo, designed for high-torque applications in space-constrained environments. Combining a reduced head with a hexagonal body, these rivet nuts offer a compact yet powerful fastening solution. Crafted from stainless steel, they offer excellent corrosion resistance for long-lasting performance. Check out a related hexagon rivet nut: Flat Head Hexagon Rivet Nuts.
Key Features
The Reduced Head Hexagon Rivet Nuts feature a smaller head than flat head designs, minimizing protrusion for tight spaces while retaining the hexagonal body’s excellent anti-rotation properties. Compared to knurled options, the hex body provides greater torque-out resistance, and the reduced head eliminates the need for deep countersinking, simplifying installation.
Applications
Ideal for precision equipment, small machinery, and automotive rivet nuts applications where space is limited but high torque is needed, these rivet nuts are available in M3 to M12. Pair with our Rivet Nut Tools for easy installation.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
Understanding the Size Chart:
- Thread Size (d): The metric thread size (e.g., M3, M4) compatible with matching bolts or screws.
- Grip Range (e): The range of material thickness the rivet nut can securely fasten (e.g., 0.5-2 mm).
- Hole Size (H): The recommended diameter of the hole to be drilled in the material for installation.
- Head Height (E): The height of the rivet nut head after installation, affecting the protrusion above the surface.
- Head Diameter (B): The diameter of the rivet nut head, determining the contact area with the material.
- Overall Length (L): The total length of the rivet nut before installation.
- Installed Length (L₂): The length of the rivet nut after installation, indicating the space it occupies.

Installation Guide
- Drill a hexagonal hole in the material matching the specified Hole Size (H) in the Size Chart.
- Insert the Reduced Head Hexagon Rivet Nut into the hexagonal hole, ensuring the hex body aligns with the hole shape.
- Use a compatible rivet nut tool to compress and secure the rivet nut, locking the hex body into the material.
- Thread a matching bolt or screw into the rivet nut to complete the assembly.
Note: Ensure the material thickness falls within the specified Grip Range (e) for a secure fit.
Technical Notes
- Ensure the material thickness is within the Grip Range to avoid installation failure.
- Requires a hexagonal hole for installation to maximize anti-rotation performance; use a hex broach or punch for accurate hole preparation.
- The reduced head design minimizes protrusion, making it ideal for space-constrained, high-torque applications.
- Open End design allows flexibility for bolts of varying lengths but is not suitable for waterproof applications.
- Recommended for use with stainless steel bolts to prevent galvanic corrosion.
