Rivet Bushes

Rivet bushes are the devices or equipment used to add a threaded hole, often a load-bearing thread, to a soft or weak sheet of material. The thread is the helical structure that permits nuts, bolts, and other components to fasten to each other. They are made up of the main shaft, a narrower undercut with a smaller diameter, and a serrated clinching ring, which secures the rivet bush to the material.Enrgtech offers a selection of excellent rivet bushes from the Hank brand with excellent designs a...

Rivet bushes are the devices or equipment used to add a threaded hole, often a load-bearing thread, to a soft or weak sheet of material. The thread is the helical structure that permits nuts, bolts, and other components to fasten to each other. They are made up of the main shaft, a narrower undercut with a smaller diameter, and a serrated clinching ring, which secures the rivet bush to the material.

Enrgtech offers a selection of excellent rivet bushes from the Hank brand with excellent designs and unique specifications. These bushes come in a variety of thread sizes, clear galvanized, clear passivated, zinc plated, and thread lengths to suit every possible application you need.

Working Principle

Firstly, the bushes are inserted into a sheet of material, usually through a pre-drilled hole. The clinching ring is then pressed into the softer material, causing it to bend into the main shank's groove. Finally, the nut is locked in, and now the threaded hole allows you to screw something into it.

Types

These bushes are distinguished primarily by their diameters, which are determined by the size of the screw that will be used to secure them. Generally, these bushes come in hexagonal and round shapes with brass, bright zinc plated steel, or stainless steel colour finishes. However, they differ in size and length, with differences in diameters and depths. Well-known brands include Hank, often referred to as Hank bushes or Hank nuts.

Features and Advantages

The finishes available are zinc-plated passivated, stainless steel, and zinc-plated galvanised steel in different colors and sizes.
These Hank clinch nuts are ideal for use as sheet metal fasteners.
Some varieties of self-clinching nuts in various thread sizes are offered, which provide strong, reusable female threads in panels.
They are made of case-hardened mild steel, zinc plated, and passivated. Please note that self-clinching nuts should be assembled using a press tool or similar non-shock device.

Applications:

A range of Hank bushes offers various solutions suitable for a range of applications, as discussed below.
They offer high torsional and pullout resistance, a secure female thread, and are suitable for almost any hardness of sheet metal.
Clinch nuts are a type of fastener that can be used in a variety of applications, including white goods, telecommunications, the automotive industry, and audio and electrical enclosures.
They are used to spread a load over a greater area of shear, tension, and torque.
They provide strong reusable threads and threaded spacers in panels too thin to be conventionally tapped.
They can be installed into panels as thin as 0.5mm and do not suffer from their maximum hardness or centerline.

Conclusion:

We offer a wide range of bushes available from stock in metric thread sizes in steel, zinc plated, and stainless steel in the round knurled spigot and hexagon styles. From the comfort of your home, order your desired products with quick and timely delivery.
