As the name suggests, the lantern rivet nut looks like a lantern. It is usually riveted on some soft and low hardness workpieces, such as plastic and PVC. After riveting, the cylinder expands into 4 petals, which actually increases the force bearing area and ensures the strength. The lantern After the rivet nut is riveted, the shape is like a lantern. Due to its low strength, it is especially suitable for fixing on plastic products, and the products are fastened with screws and pneumatic cap guns. Let's learn about the use and characteristics of lantern rivet nuts.

Use of lantern rivet nut: If the nut of a product needs to be installed outside, but the internal space is too small to allow the indenter of the sub-riveting machine to enter for riveting, and methods such as sprouting cannot meet the strength requirements, the pressure Both riveting and expansion riveting are not feasible, and pull riveting must be used. It is suitable for fastening plates and pipes of various thicknesses. It can be riveted at one time with a pneumatic or manual riveting gun, which is convenient and firm; it replaces the traditional welding nut and makes up for the metal sheet. Welding of thin tubes is easy to melt, and welding nuts are jammed.

Lantern rivet nuts are used in the fastening fields of various metal plates, pipes and other manufacturing industries. At present, they are widely used in the assembly of electromechanical and light industrial products such as automobiles, aviation, railways, refrigeration, elevators, switches, instruments, furniture, decoration, etc. It is developed to solve the defects such as easy melting of metal plate and thin tube welding nut, easy welding deformation of base metal, and easy sliding of teeth when tapping internal thread. No need to tap internal thread, no welding nut, high riveting efficiency and easy to use.

The lantern rivet nut is characterized in that the stem connecting the head and the tail of the rivet nut is a 4-lobed structure. After the rivet nut of the utility model is riveted and deformed, the 4 petal-shaped rivet strips become cross-shaped rivets, which are immersed in the soft mounting surface material. , the riveting becomes very strong.
