During the process of Sheet Metal Manufacturing Riveted Nuts Parts, the riveter will deform the base material, then the nuts will be pressed into a prefabricated slot, and the connection will be done between two parts. There are two types of non-standard riveted nuts, one is standoffs, and another is riveted nuts.
Sheet Metal Manufacturing Riveted Nuts Parts
During the process of sheet metal riveted nuts, the riveter will deform the base material, then the nuts will be pressed into a prefabricated slot, and the connection will be done between two parts. There are two types of non-standard riveted nuts, one is standoffs, and another is riveted nuts.
Sheet metal riveted nuts connect with base material, and they require the hardness of nuts higher than that of the base material. Ordinary low-carbon steel, aluminum sheet and copper sheet are suitable to make standoffs. Because of the high hardness of stainless steel and high-carbon steel sheet, specialized high strength standoffs are required. But the price is high, and it is difficult to rivet. Even if the standoffs are riveted, they are easy to fall off. To fasten the connection, the usual solution is to weld at the side of standoffs. Therefore, stainless steel is not suitable for standoffs and riveted nuts.
The common sheet metal riveted nuts that you see in market are made with carbon steel. It is made by mold, and it reveals the color of the metal itself. And the surface can be electroplated with white zinc or blue zinc. If it is blue zinc-plated, it can approve the salt spray test of 12 hours.
