Rivet nuts are commonly used in detailed industrial and aircraft production factories because of their simplicity of use and uniform strength. At times there are plans that require the same strength and fastening power in an area that calls for a removable panel or in a close area where a regular rivet nuts would present issues or problems, and that also is where rivet nut tools become necessary. The rivet sinks a threaded fastener nut on the back side of one of the surfaces that really need to be guaranteed, making it possible to fasten the panels with a tall strength bolt. This application may be inserted with a hand tool, but generally it is executed with a power rivet nut tool, that is driven electrically, or by airplane. The ease of use and big durability of these rivet nuts have manufactured them very popular in the assembling industries. It's rather rare to see an assemblage without this tool today.
Rivet nuts come in a type of sizes, shapes and metals for just about every possible application, a lot of the more popular kinds were developed for high stress situations, for example aircraft body panels, internal service doors and access areas. Several rivet nuts are designed with a recessed or counter sunk head, and a few have a secondary securing feature that permit additional protection producing this fastening tool more reliable. One of the simplicity of use features is that it takes less stress and applied force to effectively sink one when using a pre installed rivet nut gun, or commercial grade rivet installation tools. There are also plenty of high-speed pneumatic brake rivet nut tools that are accustomed to protect brake pad linings to the metal backings. These applications generally use stainless steel rivet nuts for their exceptional pressure and corrosion resistance.
Rivet nut tools are speciality airplane tools that use a blind rivet nut system where accessibility is limited and the metal demands high stress fasteners that may be removed for future access for repair or inspection. Rivet nut tools make it possible to provide top quality removable fastening to metal and body panels where standard rivet nuts would need costly removal efforts and probably damage the parts demanding periodic removal.
