Rivet is made up of a smooth cylindrical shaft and a head, which is called the factory head on one end. And the end opposite the head is called the Flat Head Rivet Nut or shop head. The bucktail is about 1.5 times the shaft diameter to hold the rivet. They are installed with the aid of a hammer of such kind of things.
In this process, the force is needed to push the factory head to insert the rivet into the hole.Aluminum Rivnuts indeed tends to fill the hole tightly. As a result, it is difficult or impossible to obtain such a tight fit with other fasteners.
Hex Rivet Nut the oldest and most intense types of fasteners. It is installed with a hammer to deform the head to insert the shaft like the common ones. They are widely used in the structural parts of aircraft. For example, it is counted that hundreds of thousands of solid rivets are used to assemble the frame of a modern aircraft to enable the reliability and safety count.
They are typically made from aluminum alloys, titanium, and nickel-based alloys and are designed in rounded (universal) or 100° countersunk heads. Furthermore, the rivnut made of steel is primarily used in static structures such as bridges, cranes, and building frames.
