Rivetking 8C1ISRSZ/P50 Knurled Rivet Nut Insert 8-32 Unc

Product Description

The RIVETKING 8C1ISRSZ/P50 is a knurled rivet nut insert designed to create strong, load-bearing threaded connections in thin or soft base materials where a standard through-bolt is not practical. Made from zinc-plated steel, each insert accepts an 8-32 UNC thread and installs into a 1/4-inch drilled hole. The knurled body locks against rotation during installation and under load. Body length is 0.37 inches, with a grip range of 0.266 inches to 0.271 inches. This package contains 50 inserts. Electricians, HVAC fabricators, sheet metal workers, and equipment installers use these inserts when building or repairing panels, brackets, and enclosures.

These inserts are suited for residential and commercial applications where a permanent threaded anchor is needed in steel sheet, aluminum, or similar thin-gauge material. Common install scenarios include equipment enclosures, electrical panels, HVAC unit frames, and control panel fabrication. The 8-32 UNC thread standard is a widely used coarse-thread specification, making these inserts compatible with standard machine screws available from most trade suppliers. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in typical indoor or protected outdoor installations.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with common machine screws
• Knurled body resists spin-out during installation and under torque load
• Zinc-plated steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Grip range: 0.266 inches to 0.271 inches for consistent pull-up in thin material
• Installs into a standard 1/4-inch drilled hole
• Package quantity of 50 inserts reduces per-unit cost on multi-point installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded insert for thin-gauge steel, aluminum, and similar sheet materials requiring a permanent 8-32 UNC threaded anchor point.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by sheet metal workers, HVAC fabricators, or electricians using a rivet nut setting tool sized for the 8-32 body diameter. Drill the base material to 1/4 inch before installing. Ensure the base material thickness falls within the 0.266-inch to 0.271-inch grip range for a proper clinch. De-energize any equipment and follow applicable NEC or OSHA lockout-tagout procedures before working on live panels or energized enclosures.
