We all know that rivet nuts are often used in daily life, but they are also used in some other fields. Let's learn about it with R-Best fasteners.

The application of rivet nuts on locomotives, rivet nuts are now widely used in the assembly of electromechanical and light industrial products such as automobiles, aviation, railways, shipbuilding, air conditioners, elevators, meters, furniture, and construction. The rivet nut has been widely used in foreign locomotives, and it has also been successfully used in my country's Harmony HXD1 electric locomotive.

The rivet nuts applied on the HXD1 locomotive are all 2-6 mm thin-plate structures, which are mainly used for the installation of small parts. The axial load and torsion load are not large, and a large number of them are required in a small area. Bolted connection.

The application of rivet nuts in HXD1 locomotive reconnection socket and machine room lamp mounting seat. After the rivet nut replaces the hexagonal welding nut in the locomotive reconnection socket, the welding deformation is eliminated and the work efficiency is improved; the machine room lamp mounting seat takes advantage of the single-sided installation of the rivet nut, changes the assembly sequence, and improves the process performance. For components with high precision requirements, the riveting nut mounting holes can also be opened after the assembly welding is completed to meet the assembly accuracy.

In the assembly process of the decorative panel in the driver's cabin and the driver's console, the rivet nut takes advantage of the connection between dissimilar materials and simplifies the assembly process of these components. In addition, rivet nuts are used in the installation of various lamps, installation of sunshade curtains, installation of small electrical components, air-conditioning ducts, and installation of roof ventilation grids.
