Round Open End

Hole size, grip range and stroke setting - the guide shows how to get a solid, reusable thread first time, plus the no-tool method for one-off jobs.

Round open end rivet nuts (nutserts) have a cylindrical body, knurled for grip against spinning, with an open (through) end that accepts a longer bolt. They are the default choice across the rivet-nut range and our widest-stocked style.
WHEN TO CHOOSE IT
Choose round open end when you want a simple, strong blind thread in sheet, tube or extrusion and the bolt may need to pass right through. The knurled body resists rotation under normal load; step up to a hex or splined style for high-torque or soft materials.
SIZES AND MATERIALS
166 variants, M3 to M12, in aluminium (light, soft panels), G304/G316 stainless (outdoor, marine) and zinc plated (everyday interior).
