  • That moment when you've spent your whole life calling them rivnuts and you find out they have another name.

    Rivnut® and Nutsert® and are both trade names for essentially the same thing. Which one you use probably just depends on which you saw first, although Rivnut is the original, invented in 1936 by the B F Goodrich company for aircraft work. Nutsert is the brand name of Avdel, a British company again with its roots in aviation.

  • If speaking to people in our american manufacturing division I always refer to them as rivnuts whereas in the UK I would generally use the term nutserts. Yes we buy them from Avdel.
