Kawneer KW028343 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Kawneer KW028343 rivnut and where does it go on a door?
It's a blind threaded insert (rivnut) that Kawneer supplies as a service replacement part for Push/Pull exit device assemblies. It sets into a hole in the aluminum door stile or rail and provides a 1/4-20 female thread for the exit device fastener to bite into. When the original insert spins, strips, or pulls out and the screw will no longer hold, this is the part you replace rather than the whole device.
2) What thread and length is the KW028343 rivnut?
1/4-20 thread, 11/16 inch long. That combination matters: the thread has to match the exit device screw and the body length has to suit the grip range of the stile it sets into, so an insert of a different length will either bottom out or fail to clamp properly.
3) My Kawneer push/pull exit device screw keeps spinning and won't tighten. Is this the fix?
Usually, yes. A spinning 1/4-20 screw on a push/pull device almost always means the threaded insert in the stile has stripped or is turning in its hole. Drilling out the old insert and setting a fresh KW028343 restores the thread without having to replace the door leaf or the device. Confirm the screw is 1/4-20 before ordering, since the insert is thread-specific.
4) Is this rivnut an OEM Kawneer part or an aftermarket substitute?
It is a genuine Kawneer service part, model KW028343, supplied through the Kawneer service parts program. For maintenance shops that standardize on Kawneer entrances, that means the thread and dimensions match what came out of the door originally.
5) Do I get the exit device screws with the KW028343 rivnut?
No. The KW028343 is the threaded insert only, one part number, one configuration. The mating 1/4-20 machine screws and any exit device components you are also replacing have to be ordered separately. Also plan on a rivnut setting tool; these inserts are pulled into the hole, not driven like a wood screw.
6) Is the KW028343 rivnut rated for commercial door traffic or is it a residential part?
Commercial. Kawneer catalogs it as commercial door hardware, and its normal home is exit device service work in offices, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, and government buildings.
