Rivetking .30C1ISRAP/P50 Aluminum Rivet Nut M3x0.50 50 Pack

Product Description

The RIVETKING .30C1ISRAP/P50 is an aluminum knurled rivet nut insert threaded to M3x0.50 metric coarse specification. Rivet nut inserts - also called nutserts or blind rivet nuts - are installed into a pre-drilled hole from one side of a workpiece, creating a threaded fastening point in thin-wall or hollow materials where a standard nut cannot be accessed from the back. This insert features a knurled body that resists rotation after installation. The uncoated aluminum construction keeps weight low and provides adequate corrosion resistance for general-purpose applications. Body length is 9.4 mm. Grip range runs from 0.02 inches to 0.13 inches, making it suitable for light sheet stock. This package contains 50 inserts.

M3x0.50 rivet nut inserts are used in sheet metal fabrication, enclosure assembly, electronics chassis work, and light structural assembly wherever a reusable threaded insert is needed in aluminum, steel, or composite sheet material. The 3/16 inch drill size requirement is standard and easily achieved with common drill press or hand drill setups. These inserts are sized for applications requiring a compact, low-profile threaded anchor - typical in HVAC panel assemblies, electrical enclosures, and custom fabrication work.

Key Features

• M3x0.50 metric coarse thread for broad hardware compatibility
• Knurled body resists spin-out after installation in the parent material
• Grip range of 0.02 inches to 0.13 inches accommodates light-gauge sheet stock
• Uncoated aluminum construction - lightweight and corrosion-resistant for general use
• Requires a 3/16 inch drill hole - compatible with standard drill bits and rivet nut tools
• Packaged in a quantity of 50 inserts per order unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard M3x0.50 metric coarse blind rivet nut insert for use in thin-wall sheet metal, aluminum sheet, and composite panels with a 3/16 inch pre-drilled hole and material thickness within the 0.02 inch to 0.13 inch grip range.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a rivet nut setting tool - manual, pneumatic, or hydraulic - sized for M3 inserts. Drill the parent material to 3/16 inch before installation and deburr the hole edge to ensure proper seating of the knurled body. Do not exceed the maximum grip specification for the material thickness in use, as over-compression can deform the insert flange or strip the thread. Follow applicable fastener standards and torque guidelines for M3 hardware when threading fasteners into the installed insert.
