Description
Overview:
These smooth-body threaded nutserts are blind inserts designed to create strong, reusable threads in thin or soft materials where tapping is not possible. Sized for M8 (8 mm) fasteners, they are suitable for repair work and new assemblies across construction equipment, plant, and garden machinery such as mowers, generators, compactors, and metal fabrication projects. Made from durable metal with a corrosion-resistant finish, they provide long service life in workshop and site conditions. Once set, each insert forms a secure, load-bearing thread from one side of the workpiece, ideal for closed profiles and box section. Supplied in a pack of 50 for consistent results across multiple jobs. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 903 1679.
Key Features:
- Smooth-body design for easy insertion into drilled holes without knurl marks
- M8 (8 mm) internal thread for common fasteners and tooling
- Blind installation from one side of the material for closed or hard-to-reach sections
- Reliable grip in sheet metal, thin-wall tube, and composite panels
- Creates a durable, reusable thread that will not strip like sheet metal screws
- Suitable for use in steel, aluminium, and certain plastics (with appropriate hole sizing)
- Corrosion-resistant finish for use in workshop and outdoor environments
- Compatible with hand, lever, or pneumatic rivnut tools; can be set with a bolt-and-spanner method in a pinch
- Consistent flange clamping for neat, flush hardware fit-up
- Pack of 50 for maintenance teams and repeat production tasks; MPN 903 1679 for easy reordering
Typical Applications:
Creating or restoring M8 threads in thin materials on lawn and garden machinery, site equipment, vehicle and trailer panels, sheet-metal fabrications, racking, enclosures, HVAC ducting, brackets, guards, and control panels. Ideal for repairs where original threads have worn out, and for adding attachment points to box section or blind cavities.
