You can insert a rivnut with basic tools! #2

This time I tried to make a clearer video of how to insert rivnuts with basic tools instead of the dedicated expensive ones. So with only some wrenches, nuts, bolts and washers, this might be a much better option for those quick jobs that come along!

I agree with previous comment about using a thrust washer but I would add that you should grease the threads to prevent galling and make it thread easier. Great video, thanks.

[@DIYwithDeon]

Absolutely! Thanks for your support as well! 👌

[@jeffa847]

What would a thrust washer do? I watched a couple videos and read a thing about thrust washers but I still don't understand what it would do here Thanks

[@davidt8438]

@@jeffa847 Jeff, using a thrust washer is essentially putting ball bearings between the nut used for crushing the rivnut and the rivnut making the nut roll it’s way tighter instead of scraping against the nut to tighten it. It makes tightening the assembly easier and smoother. I hope that makes sense.

[@jeffa847]

@@davidt8438 Yeah I think I see. So the thrust washer is made in such a way that there is less friction on both sides than a regular washer would have? I saw one video where they were using a thrust washer with copper(?) brass(?) - it was some kind of softer metal - and that didn't really make sense in this application. Thanks so much for your response

[@wheater5]

A very useful video, thanks! I’ve used rivnuts for many years and have used a couple of kits with the pliers type installation tool, which are OK for smaller sizes, or the softer aluminium ones. For the larger sizes (above M6) this DIY type of tool works better because you can get more installation force. From personal experience I prefer the first method shown here because the bolt doesn’t turn in the rivnut during the installation so there’s less chance of damaging it, the rotation takes place between the threads of the installation bolt and the tube nut. If the rivnut thread does get damaged during installation you’ve completely wasted your time and will then waste even more time removing and replacing it (been there). Rivnuts which have loosened with use can also be reset with care using any of these methods but I’d always use the first one shown. 😊

[@MrTheHillfolk]

When some idiot doesn't lube the threads ,and it's 5yrs later when you've got to get the fastener out but the whole thing spins....it'll make you wanna push it off a cliff and watch it burn.

[@wheater5]

@@MrTheHillfolk Yes, a few years ago I needed to take the body tub off the box section chassis of my kit car. It was held on by a number of factory fitted, 12mm rivnuts and one began to spin in the chassis when I tried to undo its screw. The only way to access the front of the rivnut was to take the body off….catch 22. I eventually managed to jam an old coarse file through the open end of the chassis tube which allowed me to put enough leverage on the rear of the rivnut to jam it and stop it spinning. Otherwise I would have had to cut the body tub apart in a critical area.since then I often seat a new rivnut with superglue in the hope that every little helps.

When you used the Nut Driver have you considered making a packing piece that will fit inside the Driver so you can use the Impact Driver to put pressure on the bolt head? Using a low profile socket may save having to make the packing piece to put inside the socket. The idea is to use the Drill or Impact Driver to help put pressure on the rivnut so it won't turn in the hole. I hope this makes sense. *Thank You* for the methods of "cinching" the rivnut up without needing a specific tool.

[@DIYwithDeon]

I have not really thought about it, I can probably put a nut inside the socket as a spacer. Thanks for the tip and support! 👌🏻

Your idea very useful. thank you very much

[@DIYwithDeon]

You are most welcome

[@davidobrien1152]

Tried it. It works so long as the little ribs on the rivnut grab the hole rim. If not the nut spins and won't crush. The larger the rivnut (M10 etc) the more likely to spin as the force required to crush is greater than the friction between the metals. Make sure the hole is tight. You see some people pull the bolt down on an angle to get grip on the inner rim of the hole to get the crush going. My advice. Works for smaller nuts and make sure the hole is tight. For $69 I ended up just buying the tool for M10's (13mm).

can rivnuts be used to make bolt holes smaller? like if i have a m8 bolt but the bolt hole is more like m10 can i use a m8 rivnut in the hole so i can use the m8 bolt. since using a bigger bolt isnt really feasible in my application and i dont have the skill to weld the bolt hole closed and drill it to the correct m8 size.

[@DIYwithDeon]

Preferably not, the rivnut will not grip properly in that application. I would recommend ising a repair sleeve. It's a sleeve with thread on the inside and outside. Usually used to repair damaged thread , but can be used when the hole is too big as well. Thanks for your support! 👌🏻

[@dnakiso]

Well I did the first on n I got nothing out of it. I kept tightening n nothing. I used the rivet nut tool jet n after a few of them going in,it started to get really tight to push together. The other one didn’t tighten at all. I also ask the store personnel’s to show me what I’m doing wrong. But still got know where. So now I’m looking to get the rivet nut drill kit. Like why can’t I just get the holes in my van fully filled in to get my walls up?

[@DIYwithDeon]

Hi Deloris, the assumption that I can make from your description is that the holes in your van might be a bit too big for the rivnuts that you are inserting. They can therefore not grip properly when crushed together. I hope this helps a bit.

[@peteloomis8456]

Check to see if the rivnut is a steel one or aluminum made one because the steel rivnuts are much harder to compress . Go to Harbour freight because they have the kit but they also sell a rivnut tool for under 20.00 that has 2 long handles on it that can handle the steel rivnut with no problems verses the cheap tool that comes in the kit .

I have a scenario where I can't see the other side, as I need to install a rivnut into an enclosed aluminum square tube/beam underneath the bottom of my camper/trailer. It seems the best option would be to go with one of the first two since I could feel the tightness of the rivnut against the inside if the beam, so that I make sure not to over-tighten it. I could probably use an impact driver but I'd have to practice on a test piece that I can see the other side of, to know how many rotations is good.

[@DIYwithDeon]

Yes, the test piece practice run would be a very good idea. Then you can test both methods and feel which would be most effective. Good luck and enjoy your journey! 👌

[@DIYwithDeon]

[@ElliotMelloy]

In my experience, method #2 and #3 are not so repeatably successful. It's easy to get it right while making a yt video in a test environment but not so repeatably successful in the real world, when you want to get a number of nuts in and have to spend ages holding everything in and pushing just right with your hands. I use a method like your method #1 but I put three smooth washers between the long nut and the rivnut, with a really tiny amount of grease in between. They easily absorb any rotational movement before it ever reaches the rivnut.

[@DIYwithDeon]

Thank you for your feedback and support! 👌🏻

[@Gastell0]

I didn't have suitable nuts and had only small standard nut, so I failed spectacularly as that small nut shredded the bolt threads xD Got a cheap tool from nearest home improvement store, and it failed even worse! Because I have stainless steel rivnut... and there's not enough strength in the world to sqeeze the handles of the cheap tool as these handles are just too short and mechanism doesn't amplify your force unlike better tool which that store didn't have....

[@DIYwithDeon]

That sounds a very unpleasant experience! The best advice I can give is to use tube nuts and hard bolts or perhaps extend the handles of the tool you already have, to see if that helps crunching the rivnuts. I hope you find an appropriate solution. Thanks for your support! 👌

[@spelunkerd]

Great comment, I always wondered about those two factors. You need a long coupling nut to distribute the friction on theads, and you don't want stainless unless necessary because the wall of the rivnut needs to easily collapse.

[@cowboy7645]

It may be that the stainless rivets have higher strength and thus require more power. Second problem: Stainless steel tends to seize. Then you won't get any further. Therefore, in this case, the thread and the face must be lubricated.

[@Gastell0]

@@cowboy7645 Yeah stainless is definitely much harder from material itself, so many one-hand tools won't really be able to actually handle that, getting a tool for wrench/screwdriver solved the issue for me

Not correct. Your very likely to damage the rivnut thread😮. Better to drill a hole the same size as the thread in a flat piece of steel and place it between the washer and the rivnuts then tighten the nut.down.

Thank you for your feedback and support! 👌

Nope not correct. Your comment is the opposite of correct. Could you provide a new method that IS better than the video? Cheers mate

Red we do this all the time... this method works.

It's a sample. This works great. I used his video to install my fenders. Thumbs up 5* video.

[@Moped-Frank]

don't mess around with crap but buy a good special tool to do it right and be sure the rivnut sits tight and strong.

[@DIYwithDeon]

🤦‍♂️I think you're missing the point...

[@anupamtandon1581]

See the topic of the video please. The video guides on how to get the work done if a "good special tool" is not available. Learned a lot from this video.

Seriously??? Why not just use the impact from word one . I wouldnt recomend it nut thread stress are you for real ???

[@DIYwithDeon]

😂 Jip, I'm very real. Your message is very mixed and doesn't make complete sense....

[@Method_MOK]

often there is not enough room for an impact. my recent application barely had enough room for using wrenches but this method helped me.

I enabled Russian subtitles for you. I hope it helps. 👌

[@4eloveg1]

Are you serious man? This trick has been around for many years...if you put a thrust bearing instead of a washer it will be even more fun
