The aluminium alloy hexagonal rivet nut column is a sturdy spacer designed for permanent installation in electronic assemblies. Its through-hole design allows a screw to pass through entirely, while the hexagonal body prevents rotation during installation. The flat head sits completely flush with the PCB surface, making it ideal for compact designs. Crafted from Aluminium alloy, this component provides a remarkable strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring reliable performance without adding significant mass to the final product.
Our standard aluminium alloy hexagonal rivet nut column is usually made from low carbon steel (like grades 1008, 1010) or medium carbon steel when higher strength is needed. This lets them form easily during installation while having enough strength for most everyday fastening jobs. The exact steel grade for a specific rivet nut column is listed on the material certification,just check that to be sure.

Installation of the aluminium alloy hexagonal rivet nut column is a swift, one-step riveting process that creates a permanent, vibration-resistant mounting point. Unlike threaded standoffs, its thread-free design simplifies assembly and eliminates cross-threading issues. The use of Aluminium alloy not only guarantees good corrosion resistance but also offers excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. This makes the riveted prop a practical and efficient choice for creating robust, multi-layer board stacks.
