Rivet Nut Pack for Threaded Inserts
This pack contains fifteen brass rivet nuts with a #8-32 thread size. They are designed to create permanent threaded holes in thin materials such as sheet metal, plastic, or fibreglass. The fasteners are installed from one side using a suitable setting tool. They provide a reliable anchor point for machine screws in blind-hole applications.
Brass Material and Quantity Benefits
The brass construction offers good corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity for general-purpose fastening. A quantity of fifteen pieces supports multiple installation points or allows for spares during assembly or repair work. The parts are supplied new and ready for use with standard rivet nut tooling.
Suitable for Light-Duty Blind Fastening
This product suits technicians, fabricators, and hobbyists who need to add #8-32 threads to thin-walled workpieces where rear access is limited. It is not intended for high-strength structural joints or applications requiring steel-grade shear loads. Buyers needing larger thread sizes, different materials, or bulk quantities should look at alternative fastener assortments.

Questions about this item
Will the brass threads on these #8-32 rivet nuts strip if I remove and reinstall the bolt several times?
Brass is softer than steel, so repeated installation and removal can wear the internal threads; plan to replace the nut if the grip feels loose.
What stops me from using these rivet nuts in thicker sheet metal?
The grip range is fixed by the rivet nut body length; material thicker than that range will prevent the nut from collapsing fully and forming a secure joint.
Do these brass rivet nuts get hot enough to burn fingers during a long installation session with a hand tool?
Hand-tool installation generates only brief, low heat in the brass body; the nuts stay cool enough to handle immediately after setting.
