          ITA-256x3.18-OD4.29AL

          ITA- Inserts

          ITA- Series Inserts

          The advantages:   
          Injection molding embedding, available in aluminum, brass and stainless steel materials products
          Diamond knurled design can provide strong torque and pulling force
          Suitable for thermoplastic plastics and thermosetting plastics
           
          Installation instruction:
          Please put the threaded inserts into a reserved core pins, then closed the mold and mold it together with the plastic.
          The core pin is designed to match the bottom hole of the thread or be designed according to the size table.
          If the core pin is smaller, it will cause the platic overflow into the internal thread; if the pin oversize, it will cause the inserts failed put into.

          Can you use threaded inserts in plastic?

          Yes, threaded inserts can be used in plastics. They are often used to create strong and durable threaded connections in plastic parts that may not hold threads well on their own due to the softer nature of the material. Here are some key points about using threaded inserts in plastics:

          Insert Type: There are a variety of threaded inserts designed specifically for use in plastics, including self-tapping inserts, heat-set inserts, and ultrasonic inserts. Each type has its own installation method and is suitable for different applications.

          Installation method:

          Self-Drilling Inserts: These screw directly into pre-drilled holes in the plastic and cut their own threads when installed.
          Thermoset Inserts: These are inserted into pre-drilled holes and then heated, which softens the plastic and allows the insert to be fixed in place as the material cools and hardens.
          Ultrasonic Inserts: These use ultrasonic vibrations to melt the plastic around the insert, embedding it securely.
          Benefits: There are several advantages to using threaded inserts in plastics, including:
          Improves the strength and durability of threaded connections.
          Ability to disassemble and reassemble components without damaging the plastic.
          Provides greater resistance to wear than direct threading into plastic.
          Application: Plastic thread inserts are commonly used in various industries such as automobiles, electronics and consumer goods that require strong fastening.

          Overall, threaded inserts are a practical solution for enhancing the mechanical properties of plastic components, allowing for reliable and strong connections.
