BCT® is the revolutionary design of rivet nuts. With four cross holes on the shank, you are able to control where the bulge starts forming in a range of materials from steel to composite materials. The controlled bulge ensures optimal fitting even into holes not perfectly round or irregular or oversized. The position of these cross holes and the dimensions of the product lead to different types of BCT® Rivet nuts.
Benefits:
- Bulge-forming without hole filling and stress induction
- Very efficient setting with single side access only
- Manifold application areas, independent from base material
- Blind Rivet Nuts - Bulge Control
- Features
Bulge Control stands for pre-defined deformation of the bulge without hole filling in the base material. To ensure this setting characteristic, we will design the length and hole position of the BCT® rivet nut appropriate to the given base material dimensions. Thereby, the bulge will be formed at the backside of the application assuring the accurate fit of the blind rivet nut.
- Formats: Flat head, open; flush head, open; round shank or knurled shank
- Material: Steel, thick coat passivated (RoHS compliant) ST; Aluminium AL
- Blind Rivet Nuts - Multigrip
- Features
With a BCT® Multigrip blind rivet nut you can depending on the thread size cover a grip range of up to 9 mm. To cover such a wide grip range, usually two or three different standard blind rivet nuts are required.
- Formats: Flat head, open; flush head, open; round shank or knurled shank
- Material: Steel, thick coat passivated (RoHS compliant) ST; Aluminium AL
- Blind Rivet Nuts - High Strength
- Features
With this blind rivet nut made of steel or aluminum, a resilient thread can be brought into all materials. A high strength BCT® blind rivet nut in steel, is able to outlast the tensile strength of a 12.9 screw, a high strength BCT® rivet nut in aluminum is able to bear the tensile strength of a 8.8 screw.
- Formats: Flat head, open; flush head, open; round shank or knurled shank
- Material: Steel, thick coat passivated (RoHS compliant) ST; Aluminium AL
- Blind Rivet Nuts - Micro
- Features
Through its very short construction form, the BCT® Micro blind rivet nut enables thread joints also in applications with very limited space. The reduced shank length brings additional weight savings. The BCT® Micro is suitable for grade 8.8 screws in steel.
- Formats: Flat head, open; flush head, open; round shank or knurled shank
- Material: Steel, thick coat passivated (RoHS compliant) ST; Aluminium AL
