About Bollhoff Rivnuts
The Bollhoff Rivnut range of blind rivet nuts are single component fasteners installed “blind” from one
side of the workpiece without access to the other. They are used to provide precision, high strength
threads within components of limited thickness in metals, plastics, resins, and other materials.
Not only do they offer highly reliable, stress resistant, fast installation in thin walled parts and hollow
profiles, Bollhoff Rivnuts also permit blind riveting, combinations of riveting and screwing together of
different parts, as well as spray water-tight sealed screw connections.
Bollhoff Rivnut Features & Benefits
Most versatile solution for adding a load carrying internal or external thread to thin-walled workpieces
Are often the only fastener solution for hollow sections, housings or where access is limited to one side of a component
No preparation is required for installation other than to drill or pierce a hole in the components to be riveted
No additional finishing required after setting, even with coated or painted components
Can be installed at almost any point of the production process into plastics, ceramic components, and all metals
No heat, toxic fumes, or gases are produced during installation
Do not subject the components to the damaging effects of high temperatures
Cumbersome presses or pliers are not required
Connections can be safely made and remade without loss of performance

Bollhoff Rivstuds are a range of blind rivet studs installed “blind” on one side. When anchored by the upsetting of the plain shaft
segment, they leave a quality male thread of up to 100mm for component attachment.
Bollhoff Rivstuds allow the supported component to be prepositioned on the supporting part. This is particularly useful for heavy or
large components or where the mountings are hidden.
