Description
Overview:
The 5 mm Smooth Body Threaded Nutserts are metal blind inserts used to create strong, reusable M5 threads in thin or hollow sections where tapping is not possible. They are suited to sheet steel, aluminium, and other thin materials common on machinery guards, body panels, brackets, cabinets, and enclosures. Installed from one side only using a rivnut setting tool, they deform to clamp securely behind the workpiece, providing a permanent thread for bolts and screws. Built for reliability and consistency, this pack of 50 supports workshop repairs, fabrication, and assembly tasks, whether you are maintaining construction equipment, garden machinery, or general metalwork. Supplied as smooth-body variants for clean hole fit and stable anchoring when installed to the correct hole size and grip range. MPN: 903 1677.
Key Features:
- M5 internal thread creates a durable fixing point in thin materials
- Smooth-body design for clean seating and consistent clamping when set correctly
- Blind installation from one side only for enclosed or hard-to-reach sections
