Au-ve-co Products 19270 Nylon Panel Rivet Ratchet Shank

Product Description

The AU-VE-CO PRODUCTS 19270 is a nylon panel rivet with a ratchet shank design, used to secure panels, trim, and lightweight assemblies in HVAC, automotive, and general trade applications. The rivet fits a 7mm hole diameter and has an overall length of 30mm with 24mm of length under the head. Manufactured from nylon, it resists corrosion and is suitable for installations where metal fasteners may cause galvanic issues or panel damage. The white finish blends with light-colored panels. Installation requires no tools beyond a push or snap action, making it a fast, reliable fastener for panel work.

This rivet is suited for residential and light commercial applications where panels, access doors, or trim pieces require secure, removable fastening. The ratchet shank engages progressively as it is pushed through the panel hole, locking in place without threads. It is commonly used in HVAC equipment enclosures, ductwork panels, electrical enclosure trim, and similar assemblies where nylon fasteners are preferred over metal. The 7mm hole diameter is a common panel-prep size across multiple equipment types.

Key Features

• Ratchet shank design for tool-free push-to-lock installation
• Fits 7mm hole diameter with a 13mm head diameter for positive panel retention
• 24mm length under head accommodates material thickness in typical panel assemblies
• Nylon construction resists corrosion and prevents galvanic contact with panel surfaces
• White color finish for use with light-colored panels and trim
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds per unit, minimizing added load to panel assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement panel rivet for assemblies requiring a 7mm hole diameter ratchet shank nylon fastener in HVAC, electrical, or general panel applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by aligning the rivet shank with the prepared 7mm panel hole and applying firm hand pressure until the ratchet shank engages and locks. No power tools are required. Verify panel material thickness does not exceed the usable shank length before installation. To remove, use a flat tool to carefully pry the head from the panel surface without deforming the mounting hole.
