Item # RNNM06C1SY
M6 FLANGE KNURLED BODY RIVETNUT, 0.70-4.20mm GRIP, STEEL, YELLOW ZINC PLATED
- UM: EA
- Brand: RIVETKING
The RNNM06C1SY is a M6 steel, yellow zinc plated 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: Common in light-gauge sheet metal, electronics enclosures, HVAC ductwork, signage, and consumer-product assembly where smaller diameter fasteners are appropriate. The steel, yellow zinc plated material is well-suited to general industrial, automotive, equipment manufacturing, structural, sheet metal fabrication.

Installation: Drill a 10mm hole in the workpiece. Insert the RNNM06C1SY 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 0.70-4.20mm (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 hand-operated lazy-tongs spin-spin or spin-pull rivet nut tool for low-volume installs, or a pneumatic rivet nut gun for production. Battery-powered cordless rivet nut tools are well-suited to this thread size. Both spin-spin and spin-pull tool types are compatible with the IKF series.
