Blind Rivet Studs
Blind rivet studs, also known as blind rivet screws or blind rivet bolts, are used to insert a thread into thin sheet metal or plastic. In contrast to a blind rivet nut, which provides an internal thread for fastening screws, a blind rivet stud itself has an external thread that can be used for direct fastening.
Blind rivet studs offer an efficient way of fastening components, especially when there is no access to the back side of the material.
The blind rivet stud is threaded onto an internal thread before the setting process and inserted into the prepared pilot hole in the component. It is subjected to a pulling force via the pulling thread, causing it to deform on the back side of the sheet metal and form a rivet bulge.

Overview of Blind Rivet Studs
Our automation-grade blind rivet studs are available in various designs and differ in terms of a number of features:
Grip range - The range in which the blind rivet stud is anchored in the material. The grip range should be taken into account to ensure reliable fastening in the component.
Thread size - The thread sizes range from metric sizes M4 to M12.
Body shape - A hexagonal shank provides a much higher spin-out resistance than a round body, especially in harder sheet metal.
Head diameter - Large head diameters and heights are recommended for high push-out forces.
Head height - With a small head height or a countersunk head, there is only a slight protrusion of the head above the sheet surface.
Special designs - Our blind rivet studs can be equipped with a wedged head, large / reinforced head, sealed head / sprayed proof, high strength thread, internally floating thread for tolerance compensation.
