Advantages of Blind Nut--Insert in comparison with ordinary weld nuts/rivet nut or quivalents.   Fast, easy installation- just 2-3 seconds flat in cold condition Strong, permanent threads in panels as thin as 0.5mm Blind, one-sided installation - can be set in sheet-metal, box, sq.pipe, tubes, hollow sections, profiles etc… Can be set in painted / pre-coated panels, finished component and field jobs. Works in close-to-edge applications, difficult to reach angles and positions. A single nut can be set for a range of sheet-thicknesses. Utilizes light, compact, cost effective, ergonomic installation tooling. Acts as a spacer and standoff too Saves skilled labour cost/time, assembly cost/time. Value Engineered solution with better aesthetics Can be set on various materials-sheet-metal, plastics, frp, resins, pcbs etc… No deformation/damage/corrosion to parent component Action of Blind Rivet + weldnut combined in a single fastener Round types for general applications, hex-type for high torsional resistance Replaces welding effectively at many places- saving welding consumables Can be easily adapted to the existing manufacturing procedure
