Flare-in nuts are special nuts used for connecting parts, also known as expansion Rivet Nuts, extrusion rivet nuts or expansion rivet buckles. It has a special design structure, which can realize fast connection with bolts through a series of mechanical principles, and is suitable for various metal and non-metal materials.
The advantages of rising rivet nuts mainly include the following points:
Quick and easy installation: The installation process of the rivet nut is relatively simple, just insert it into the hole with the appropriate tool, and then rotate the bolt to complete the connection. Compared with traditional nuts, rivet nuts do not require complicated thread processing and bolt rotation, which greatly improves installation efficiency.
High-strength connection: The expansion rivet nut adopts the mechanical principle to produce a high-strength connection with the bolt by forming a bite or expansion in the hole. This connection method has excellent anti-shear and anti-vibration performance, and can maintain a firm connection in various harsh environments.
No need for back processing: Compared with traditional nuts, rivet nuts do not need to be processed on the back of the connection, and do not require additional bolt lifting and support structures, saving time and cost. This is especially important for some application scenarios where backside processing is difficult.
Reliable sealing performance: Rivet nuts can provide reliable sealing performance, suitable for occasions that require waterproof, dustproof or gas leakage prevention. Through suitable gaskets or coatings, rivet nuts can effectively prevent the leakage of media and ensure the normal operation of the system.
Applicable to various materials: Rivet nuts can be used to connect various metal and non-metal materials, including steel, aluminum alloy, plastic, etc. Whether it is a connection of similar materials or a connection of dissimilar materials, rivet nuts can provide reliable connection performance.
In general, rivet nuts have been widely used in industry and manufacturing through their unique design and advantages. It not only provides a fast and simple installation method, but also has the advantages of high-strength connection, reliable sealing performance and wide adaptability. Rivet nuts are used in automobile manufacturing, aerospace, electronic equipment, construction engineering and other fields.
In automobile manufacturing, rivet nuts can be used to connect body structures, chassis components and interior trim assemblies, providing stable connections and anti-vibration capabilities, while simplifying the assembly process and improving production efficiency.
In the field of aerospace, rivet nuts are widely used in the structural connection of aircraft. They have light weight, high strength and reliable connection characteristics, which can meet the requirements of aircraft in complex flight environments.
In electronic equipment, flare-in nuts can be used to fix components such as electronic components, heat sinks and housings to ensure their stability and reliability during operation.
In construction engineering, rivet nuts can be used to connect steel structures, aluminum alloy components and glass curtain walls, etc., providing strong connections and earthquake resistance, while simplifying the construction process.
Overall, the definition and strengths of flare-in nuts make them an important connecting element. Not only are they quick and easy to install, but they also offer high-strength connections, reliable sealing performance and wide adaptability. This makes rivet nuts widely used in various industries and fields, bringing convenience and benefits to engineering design and manufacturing.
