Accommodate For Tolerance Stack Up

Sherex Fastening Solutions (Tonawanda, NY) offers the RIV-FLOAT® rivet nut. The internally floating threads on RIV-FLOAT allow for component attachments in off-center applications and can accommodate for tolerance stack up in the manufacturing process. The floating nut (.020” radial float) aligns to drive the angle of the screw, virtually eliminating cross threading and spin-out. RIV-FLOAT was designed for installation post finish in applications where cage nuts, clinch nuts, floating nut plates, or weld nuts are typically used. The rivet nuts are well-suited for providing load-bearing threads in thin materials and blind applications.
