I did a quick water bottle boss test. I used AW Rivnuts designed for "softer" materials in an M5x0.8 thread. After drilling the correct size hole I installed the Rivnut watching it collapse on the back side as I went.
Here it is installed.
And here it is ripped out after applying considerable force. Enough force to delaminate the tube wall.
I'll use DP-420 in behind the Rivnuts when I install them in a frame for added security.
