Anybody used these in their kit car builts? They look like the ideal way to put a threaded insert into a thin sheet of ally or fibreglass etc

I called Zygology and they only sell them in a min of 200 pieces (approx £46 + vat). Anyone interested in sharing a purchase, I only need twenty or so!

I'd be interested in anyone knows of a place that sells them in lower quantities

Cheers

Paul

Probably not so good for thin sheets, but the same principle!!

I bought a load of rivets from Zygology and the nose piece for the setting tool to set them (Avdel Monobolts).

They delivered pretty quickly, but didn't want to sell me a small quantity (minimum 1000 if I recall correctly).

As for the versanuts, I would still put a large diameter washer between the bit that deforms outwards on the back side, just to spread the load. as much as possible....

Thanks for the information that prifast do these as well. Very friendly service and were happy to sell me twenty of them.

£5 +Vat for those who want to know how much they are.

Cheers
