Au-ve-co Products 13002 Rubber Insulated Rivet Nut M6

Product Description

The AU-VE-CO PRODUCTS 13002 is a rubber insulated rivet nut designed for applications requiring vibration isolation and secure metric threading in sheet metal, panels, or enclosures. The fastener features a neoprene body that absorbs vibration and provides electrical insulation, paired with a brass internally threaded nut. It accepts an M6x1.00 metric coarse thread and installs into a 0.5-inch diameter drilled or punched hole. The flanged head measures 0.787 inches in diameter and 0.051 inches thick, seating flush against the panel surface to distribute clamping load. Overall length is 0.63 inches, with a body length of 0.579 inches.

This rivet nut is well suited for HVAC cabinet assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, control panel mounting, and other light-gauge metalwork where a captive metric thread is needed in thin material. The neoprene body makes it appropriate for installations where the fastener must dampen vibration or isolate the bolt from the parent material. It is typically installed by sheet metal technicians, HVAC fabricators, and electrical panel assemblers. The minimum grip range is 0.015 inches and the maximum grip is 0.094 inches, covering a practical range of thin-gauge panel stock.

Key Features

• M6x1.00 metric coarse internal thread for broad metric hardware compatibility
• Neoprene body provides vibration damping and electrical isolation
• Brass nut insert for corrosion resistance and reliable thread engagement
• 0.787-inch flange diameter distributes load at the panel face
• Grip range of 0.015 to 0.094 inches suits thin sheet metal panels
• 0.5-inch body diameter installs into a standard half-inch drill or punch hole

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style insulated rivet nut for thin-gauge panel and enclosure applications requiring an M6x1.00 metric coarse captive thread with a 0.5-inch body diameter installation hole.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard rivet nut setting tool sized for a 0.5-inch body diameter. Ensure the panel or substrate is drilled or punched to the correct hole size before installation. Power down any energized enclosure or panel completely before inserting fasteners into live assemblies. Do not overtighten the setting mandrel, as excessive force can distort the neoprene body and reduce grip performance.
