FB Inserts

FB Series Inserts

The advantages:
Permits thin boss walls allowing compact boss design
Reversed triangle thorn bands with straight knurl provide excellent torque & anti pull-out performance;
Provides high torque and pull out performance;
Rapid installation using heat or ultrasonic;
Choice of lengths available;
Self-aligning-Assists Installation;
Applicable for thermoplastic plastics (ABS, PA, PPS, POM).
          
Installation instruction:
The fastener may be installed using either a pre-heating process or using heat generated by ultrasonic vibrations.Where preheating is used care must be
exercised to ensure that the fastener softens but does not melt the plastic.
This will avoid any tendency to generate unsightly  flash around the top of the insert and could have a detrimental effect on performance. Insert must be installed flush to provide maximum performance.

What is a threaded insert?

Threaded Inserts are cylindrical fasteners used to create strong and durable threaded holes in materials such as plastic, wood or metal. These inserts provide a reliable method of fastening components together, especially in situations where the base material may not be strong enough to directly secure a screw or bolt.

Main features of threaded inserts:
Design: Threaded inserts typically have internal threads that securely hold the screw or bolt. They may also have external features (such as knurling or ridges) to help grip the surrounding material.

Type: There are many types of threaded inserts, including:

Thermoset Inserts: Installed by heating and melting the surrounding material.
Self-tapping inserts: They create their own threads when screwed into a pre-drilled hole.
In-mold insert: added during the manufacturing process of plastic parts.
Ultrasonic Inserts: Mounted using ultrasonic vibrations to melt the plastic around the insert.
Application: Threaded Inserts are often used in applications that require a secure, removable fastening point, such as automotive parts, electronic housings, furniture assembly, and various industrial applications.

Material: They are usually made of materials such as brass, stainless steel, or plastic, depending on the application and the material being inserted.

benefit:
Strength: They provide a strong fastening point, especially in softer materials.
Reusability: The screws can be removed and replaced without damaging the base material.
Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of materials and applications.
In summary, threaded inserts are essential components in many manufacturing and assembly processes, providing a reliable method for creating secure threaded connections in a variety of materials.
