Hex body rivet nuts provide superior spin-out resistance to round body rivet nuts. When a hex-shaped hole can be produced, we recommend using one of our half hex or full hex rivet nut product lines:
Half Hex rivet nuts are ideal for light-duty applications and can be installed using all Sherex tools
Full Hex rivet nuts are ideal for heavy-duty applications and should be installed with hydro-pneumatic spin-pull tools
