Item # RNNM10C1AP
M10 FLANGE KNURLED BODY RIVETNUT, 0.70-3.80mm GRIP, ALUMINUM, PLAIN
- UM: EA
- Brand: RIVETKING
The RNNM10C1AP is a M10 aluminum, plain flange-style knurled body rivet nut from the RivetKing IKF (low profile head) thinwall series. Designed for blind installation in sheet metal and panel applications where threads are needed but back-side access is impractical, this rivet nut installs from one side of the workpiece and provides a permanent threaded socket once set.
Typical applications: Heavy use in automotive accessories, off-road vehicle modifications, equipment manufacturing, panel mounting, and general industrial fabrication where moderate load capacity is needed. The aluminum, plain material is well-suited to lightweight applications, automotive aftermarket, aerospace, off-road, marine fittings, electronics enclosures.

Installation: Drill a 13.5mm hole in the workpiece. Insert the RNNM10C1AP from the accessible side and set with a rivet nut tool — the body collapses against the back side of the panel and the knurled flange grips the front side to prevent rotation under torque. Recommended grip range is 0.70-3.80mm (sheet thickness).
For step-by-step instructions: see our How to Install Rivet Nuts guide for the complete process, common mistakes, and verification tips.
Tool selection: Use a pneumatic or hydraulic rivet nut tool for production volume. A battery-powered cordless tool also works well at this size. Hand tools are workable for occasional installs but become fatiguing in volume. Both spin-spin and spin-pull tool types are compatible with the IKF series.
