Description
Overview:
Sealey Threaded Insert (Rivet Nut) M6 Regular Pack of 50 (part no. TIRM6) is a steel fastener with a zinc-plated finish designed to create strong, reusable M6 threads in thin sheet and hollow sections where standard tapping is not possible. Once set, each insert provides a durable internal thread that accepts M6 bolts and set screws, making it useful for repairs and new builds alike. The zinc plating offers dependable corrosion resistance for use indoors or outdoors. Suitable for construction and garden machinery, as well as general metal fabrication, panelwork and enclosures. These inserts are installed using a dedicated rivet nut setting tool with an M6 mandrel, allowing quick, consistent results with access from one side only.
Key Features:
- M6 thread (coarse 1.0 mm pitch) for compatibility with standard metric fasteners
- Creates a robust threaded anchor in thin sheet, tube, and box section without welding
- Blind installation from one side for use in closed profiles and hard-to-reach areas
- Zinc-plated steel resists corrosion and wear for longer service life
- Secure mechanical swage when set correctly for reliable pull-out and spin resistance
- Compatible with hand, lever, and pneumatic rivet nut tools using an M6 mandrel
- Regular general-purpose pattern suited to a wide range of sheet materials
- Helps prevent damage to thin materials compared with self-tapping screws
- Neat, professional finish ideal for repeat assembly and maintenance tasks
- Supplied as a pack of 50 to cover multiple jobs and keep workshop stock ready
- Manufactured by Sealey, a recognised brand for workshop tooling and accessories
