Many metric sizes, even smaller ones for odd or less common uses, the kit also includes a selection of SAE sizes too -- that's less common and welcome too! What you get: the shipping box was well padded, protecting the product box well. The latter, storage box for all the rivet nuts is very decent, with individual partitions for the different size nuts, each size coming individually packed in its own (extra plastic...) bag. The advantage is that they aren't mixed up by the time you get them! The rivet-nuts themselves are well thought out and produced: the flange is just wide enough, and behind it is vertical knurling to hold it from falling out or spinning after you insert it into materials, thick or thin. The sleeve or cylinder is long enough with quality threading, and the insertion nose has a bevel around the tip to allow for easier insertion, sort of self-guiding. I'm going to have a lot of use of these, and they'll help with several projects already in progress. I'm thinking of experimenting a bit with a knock-down green wood project already under way.

Solid rivet nuts and a great set for around the house since it has both metric and sae nuts in the same set. These are fairly sturdy, more than aluminum, 304 or 316 stainless nuts, but still lighter duty than carbon steel or hardened carbon steel nuts, so may do some damage to cheap rivet nut setters but not nearly as much as carbon steel ones. I would avoid in marine and salt environments because 410 isn't going to stand up to it, but these are an upgrade over 304 and 316 in terms of strength.

I've never used this kind of fastener before, so it should be an interesting exercise.Largish assortment, box is OK, the quality looks fine.

I use these with a rivnut gun to attach hood and tailgate struts to small (mostly JDM) cars that did not come with them as standard. It is nice to be able to have a secure mounting point directly in the under the hood metal framework, hatch gate, or body panel (yes, sealant is used to avoid water incursion), exactly where it gives the best angle for the installation. Without these we are limited to the preexisting holes in the support metal, which limits optimum installation. It is nice to find a kit like this with high quality fasteners and such a large variety to choose from. I generally only use 3 different metric sizes, but like the option of using these for any variety of other tasks.

This is a nice set of rivet nuts that appear to be of excellent quality. If your job requires frequent use of rivet nuts, this probably isn’t aimed at you—you’ll likely be buying one or two sizes in bulk. But that’s not the point of this set.The value here is in having a well-rounded assortment in a handy little bin, ready for when the need arises.I used to own a bicycle business, and a set like this would’ve been great to have around—for the occasional stripped rivet nut or to add a mount point to thin-walled metal or plastic tubing. That business turned me into a bit of a fastener snob: the right bolt, the right material, for the right job. Over the years, I probably wouldn’t have used them all, but I would’ve appreciated having them ready when I needed one. And it’ll be great to have them now, when I do.The stainless steel is a real plus—offering superior corrosion resistance, especially useful on touring bikes or any bike exposed to harsh weather or salt.Pro tip: If you’re installing these with a bolt and washer instead of a proper tool, avoid using a stainless bolt to compress stainless rivet nuts. Stainless is strong but not particularly hard, and when threaded into itself under pressure, it’s prone to galling—where the threads heat up and seize, effectively welding the bolt in place. You’re better off using a hardened, zinc-coated steel bolt for installation. It’s less likely to strip or seize, and a dab of anti-seize compound on the threads goes a long way. Once the rivet nut is secured, you can safely switch to a stainless bolt for the final install—especially if you still use a bit of anti-seize.
