Rivet Nut GESIPA St M10x12x17.5 Standard KS 0.25–3.5 mm, Pack of 100

Threaded blind rivet nut GESIPA St M10x12x17.5 Standard KS enables the creation of reliable internal threads in thin-walled materials without access to the rear side. Made with a stainless steel body, this M10 rivet nut features a 12 mm flange diameter and a 17.5 mm total grip length suitable for sheet and panel applications. The specified grip range of 0.25–3.5 mm covers many common thin metal and composite thicknesses. Supplied in a pack of 100, this component is intended for repeated use in industrial assembly, repair work and sheet metal fastening tasks.

Advantages

The stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance and dimensional stability under typical operating conditions. The standard KS profile and flange size ensure consistent clamping and load distribution in thin substrates. A defined grip range simplifies selection for panels and assemblies between 0.25 and 3.5 mm, reducing the need for additional reinforcements. Packaging in a quantity of 100 supports batch operations and reduces frequency of reordering for production or maintenance environments.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Creating M10 internal threads in thin-walled metal sheets and panels
• Industrial assembly and mechanical fastening of components
• Repair and refurbishment of appliances, enclosures and HVAC elements
• Sheet metal fabrication and vehicle bodywork where blind-side access is limited

How to use

Drill a correctly sized hole in the parent material according to the rivet nut manufacturer's hole diameter recommendation for the M10 KS profile. Insert the rivet nut into the hole so the flange sits flush against the surface. Use a compatible blind rivet nut installation tool or rivet nut gun set up for M10 size to deform the body and form the internal thread. After installation, verify the rivet nut is securely swaged and that the internal M10 thread accepts the intended fastener without play.

Usage recommendations

For best results, select the drill diameter and installation tool recommended for M10 Standard KS rivet nuts and ensure the substrate falls within the 0.25–3.5 mm grip range. When fastening into softer materials, consider using washers or reinforcing plates to distribute load. Store the rivet nuts dry and handle with clean tools to maintain thread quality.
