[QUOTE="thill, post: 494286, member: 4972"] Make sure to always add a touch of anti-seize or marine grease when screwing into rivnuts. If they seize up, it makes a real mess. I always put a little silicone adhesive to rivnuts before expanding. Sometimes they get a little corrosion in between there and then they just spin, which is very frustrating. You can tighten them up later, if there isn't a fastener in there, but better to avoid the problem to begin with. I use them in places where I will need access to, and they work well for that purpose, but not for general purpose connections. [/QUOTE]
