          The advantages:   
          The primary function of a Compression Limiter is to provide and maintain jointintegrity of a plastic assembly. Compression Limiters are designed to protect theplastic components of an assembly from the compressive loads generated by thetightening of bolts, thereby assuring continued integrity of the bolted connection.
          In practice, the Compression Limiter should be slightly shorter than the thickness of the plastichost. As the bolt is tightened the plastic compresses and the stress in the plastic increases untilthe head of the bolt, or washer if one is used, comes into contact with the Compression Limiter.Thereafter, the Compression Limiter and plastic will compress together at a rate controlled by thelimiter. The Compression Limiter will absorb additional clamping loads without further significantcompression or increased stress in the plastic material.

          How to insert a threaded insert?

          Inserting a threaded insert involves several steps and the method may vary depending on the type of insert used (e.g. helical coil, keyed insert, or solid insert). The following is a general guide on how to insert a threaded insert:

          Tools and Materials Required:
          Threaded Inserts: Select the appropriate type and size for your application.
          Drill and drill bits: For drilling the holes (if not already done). The drill bit size should match the blade specification.
          Tapping tool: If the insert requires a threaded hole.
          Insert Tool: Some inserts require specific tools to install.
          Loctite or adhesive (optional): For added security, depending on insert type and application.
          Steps to insert a threaded insert:
          Prepare the hole:
          If you are starting with solid material, drill the hole using a drill bit size that is appropriate for the blade. Make sure the hole is straight and clean.
          If the insert requires a threaded hole, use a tap to create threads in the drilled hole.
          Clean the hole:
          -Clean out any debris or dust from the holes to ensure a good fit and bond.

          A properly designed bolted joint must meet the following criteria:

          The head of the bolt, or washer if one is used, should always seat against both theplastic host and the Compression Limiter under load. This will prevent deterioration ofthe bolted joint resulting from diminished clamping load due to plastic creep.
          The rated proof load of the Compression Limiter should be equal to or greater thanthe proof load of the bolt to assure that the Compression Limiter will not yield prior tothe bolt under excessive clamping loads.
          The mating component that the Compression Limiter seats against should be strongenough to withstand the localized compressive stresses generated by the clampingforce.
          The clearance between the maximum bolt diameter and the minimum installed insidediameter of the Compression Limiter should be sufficient to compensate for expectedassembly tolerances.
