Au-ve-co Products 16859 Nylon Screw Mount Rivet

Product Description

The AU-VE-CO PRODUCTS 16859 is a nylon screw mount rivet designed for securing cowl panels to reinforcement plates and for use with engine splash shields. This fastener is constructed entirely from nylon, making it resistant to corrosion in the wet, road-spray environment typical of underhood and cowl applications. The screw mount design allows for controlled installation and clean removal during service without damaging the surrounding panel material. Automotive technicians and body shop professionals install this rivet as an OEM-style replacement fastener during cowl panel service, engine bay work, or splash shield reinstallation.

This rivet is used in automotive applications where a cowl panel must be secured to its reinforcement plate or where an engine splash shield requires retention. These areas see regular exposure to water, debris, and temperature cycles, making nylon the appropriate material choice over metal alternatives. The screw mount style suits applications where fastener removal and reinstallation are expected during routine service intervals. This part is sold with a minimum order quantity of 25 units, reflecting typical service shop usage.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by automotive technicians during cowl panel removal or engine splash shield service. Disconnect or isolate any relevant electrical components and ensure the work area is clear before beginning panel removal. The screw mount design requires a compatible driver bit for proper seating. Do not over-torque the fastener, as nylon threads can strip if excessive force is applied.
