Where can I buy them? No luck on Screwfix.com or my local place (www.orbitalfasteners.co.uk). Do they have another name or have I just imagined them?

Rivnut is a common name, another manufacturer, exactly the same, is Avdel..what size are you after?

Chris, Merlin Motorsport sell them for£30+vat the problem with this one is it only goes up to M6,

Or try Car Builder Solutions theres goes up to M8 but costs £62+vat looks better quality though and there in Staplehurst,Kent.

All the best Dan.

Try RS components, they sell from 3mm up to about 12.I used a bolt, wahers and a thrust bearing to set them rather than the proper tool.

I'll have a look around. Was hoping to buy a set with loads of sizes in.

Chris

i got some with my kit,they are so pony i left them,or is it me?,yours if u want them chris

Was going to use them to hold down little things like the brake line T pieces. What do you suggest instead? Seems silly to drill right through the tube.

I got mine, a good quality German one, from a motorsport company at Silverstone, may even have been Merlin. Excellent piece of kit, used it loads, with m6 steel ribbed rivnuts.

I haven't needed bigger than M6.

brake pipes m things use self tappers or the acme bolts
