Review on Astro Pneumatic Tool RN14 - 100 Count 1/4-20 Steel Rivet Nuts for Improved SEO by Tom Podolski

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Better quality than many other inserts.

Ideal for the price and for universal needs. What most people don't realize is that they are designed for sheet metal of varying thickness, NOT for solid blind holes. They make them with different shoulder lengths for different thickness ranges from steel, aluminum and stainless steel. There are different ones for different applications. The second biggest problem is that 90% of users have no real idea how to properly select, install and use these inserts, either by trying to compress them too much causing threads to shear, riveting tools and mandrels to break, or try to use them for opposite purposes. what they are to be used for. I've used them in air tools, hand tools, exotic materials and extreme environments for decades. You have to choose the right insert for the right material and the right job. These are the ideal general purpose steel inserts with general torque for most almost thin to medium through holes at a really good price.
