GB17880 M3 Rivet Nuts

Made from high-quality stainless steel, they offer exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. In the automotive sector, SS304 rivet nuts are essential for securing components like oil filters and air cleaners, ensuring reliable performance. They are also widely used in food processing for sieve plates and strainers, thanks to their hygiene and non-reactive properties.

GB17880 M3 Stainless Steel Pull Rivet Nut is a specialized threaded fastener designed for use on thin plates, tubes, or other materials that cannot be tapped. Its structural design allows it to be securely riveted into the base material, providing a standard internal thread for subsequent screw connections. Ideal for applications where access is available from only one side, this type of nut is also known as a single-side rivet nut, and is a commonly used solution in lightweight structural connections.

Material and Performance
This product is manufactured from Stainless Steel 304 (SS304), an austenitic stainless steel containing approximately 18–20% chromium and 8–10% nickel, offering excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. It maintains long-term stability in humid, weakly acidic, or general industrial environments, with outstanding rust-proof performance. It is especially suitable for applications requiring high hygiene, moisture resistance, or corrosion protection, such as food processing equipment, medical devices, marine installations, and outdoor systems .

Applications
The M3 stainless steel pull rivet nut is widely used in sheet metal fabrication, electrical enclosures, telecommunications equipment, automotive components, industrial control boxes, and medical instruments — wherever reliable internal threads are needed in thin-walled materials. With its compact size, light weight, and easy installation, it performs particularly well in high-volume assembly or automated riveting processes.

Installation Instructions
This nut can be quickly installed using a dedicated pull rivet tool or pneumatic riveting equipment, forming a stable internal thread connection without the need for tapping. Installation does not damage the surface of the base material, facilitating subsequent screw fastening operations. The high-quality stainless steel material also supports multiple disassembly and reinstallation cycles while maintaining structural integrity.
