Review on πŸ”© Premium Flat Head Aluminum M5 Rivet Nut Rivnut Nutsert 5mm (Pack of 25) - Durable and Efficient Fastening Solution by Kevin Folsom

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Simple repair of a loose water bottle holder on a titanium bike frame.

Now I know what "Rive Nut" is. I had a free bottle mount on the bike frame. It spun in circles when I tried to screw in a screw. I drilled through the center and removed it. I had to use a slightly larger drill to enlarge the hole in the bike frame. Insert a nut into the hole. I used a long M6 hex bolt and some washers to tighten the rivet nut all the way. I removed the M6 bolt and the rivet stayed in place. There are videos online on how to install them without special tools.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Not fashionable
