Metric Riveting Products
At South Coast Fasteners, Inc., we carry metric rivet nuts that create secure, load-bearing threads in sheet metal, tubing, and other thin-wall materials. Whether you're reinforcing aluminum panels or installing permanent threads into steel structures, we stock rivet nuts that install clean and hold strong. Designed for use in automotive, fabrication, electrical enclosures, and structural panel systems, our steel and aluminum rivet nuts are available in hex body styles for anti-rotation performance and compatibility with other standard metric fasteners.
Compliance and Technical Standards
Our metric rivet nuts are manufactured in accordance with DIN and ISO dimensional standards for proper fit and function with ISO-grade screws and bolts. Both steel and aluminum rivet nuts meet mechanical property requirements for tensile load, shear strength, and thread integrity under conditions. Material options include CR+3 zinc yellow plated steel and aluminum, providing corrosion resistance and strength in environments ranging from indoor installations to exposed field applications.
