The following information is provided “for reference only” and may include general engineering data related to the mechanical properties and strength of rivet nut fasteners. Rivet Nut USA™, Cardinal Components, Inc., and Bollhoff do not represent or guarantee that this reference engineering data is specific to your application or installation conditions.

Published mechanical properties and strength values, including tensile strength, shear strength, push-out strength, and pull-out strength, can vary depending on base material, hole preparation, installation method, and overall application design. Because these factors affect the actual mechanical properties of the fastener in service, the listed engineering data should only be used as a general guide.

Accurate engineering data and verified mechanical properties for tensile, shear, push-out, and pull-out strength can only be determined by performing a test installation of the fasteners in your specific application and measuring the resulting performance characteristics.

If interested, please contact us for the timeline and costs associated for initiating a test installation that will provide data specific to your application. Also, many companies choose to perform their own in-house testing as a more expedient measure to gain the needed engineering data and find the values to be sufficient to build the needed confidence in the design/assembly.
