RIVET NUT INSERT 1/4" X 20 BX/500 - 3M - Marson

The 3M - Marson RIVET NUT INSERT 1/4" X 20 BX/500 (Model: 49654) provides professional technicians and fabricators with a robust and efficient solution for creating reliable threaded anchor points in materials too thin for tapping. These versatile blind rivet nuts are engineered for secure, single-sided installation, making them indispensable for applications where access to the backside of the material is limited or impossible.

Key Features

• Single-Sided Installation: Designed for blind applications, allowing fast and secure installation from only one side of the workpiece, simplifying assembly in restricted access areas.
• Permanent Thread Creation: Establishes strong, durable, and load-bearing 1/4"-20 UNC internal threads in thin sheet materials, metals, plastics, and composites, providing a reliable fastening point.
• Professional-Grade Quality: Manufactured by 3M - Marson, a trusted name in fastening solutions, ensuring consistent reliability and performance in demanding industrial and automotive environments.
• Enhanced Torque Resistance: Features an "L" style round body, often with a ribbed external body, designed to provide increased torque-out resistance and prevent spinning after installation.
• Superior Vibration Resistance: Forms a strong and stable fastening joint that effectively withstands vibrations, critical for many industrial and mobile applications, ensuring long-term structural integrity.
