Re: Rivet Nuts and Rivet Studs

We used Rivnuts two years ago, but found they are really for light/moderate duty only. Anything subject to impact stresses, particularly in aluminum, will make them loosen.

Sure beats having to try to put a nut inside a piece of square tubing, 24 inches from the end...
