QT-0524x12.7-OD10.2

Quik-Tek Inserts

QT Series Inserts

The advantages:
Ideal for thermoplastic parts
Especially designed for thermal installation
Screw-locked and low-tension anchoring
High pull-out values
Efficient installation due to single-spindle, 
multiple spindle or automatic machines with preheating device
Designed for thermoplastic plastics (PPS. ABS、PP etc.)

     
Installation:
The QT thread insert is heated to the melting temperature of the plastic.
As a result of the heat transfer upon insertion,the plastic is plasticised for a short
time and flows into the undercut of the thread insert.Upon cooling,a low-stress
interference is realised.

What is the best material for ultrasonic threaded inserts?

Material selection for threaded inserts is critical as it affects the durability, wear resistance and overall performance of the insert.

Common Materials for Threaded Inserts
Steel: Steel is one of the most common materials used for threaded inserts. It has excellent strength and durability, making it suitable for high-stress applications. Steel inserts can be coated for enhanced corrosion resistance, which is especially important in outdoor or wet environments.

Aluminum: Aluminum threaded inserts are lightweight and corrosion resistant, making them ideal for applications where weight is a concern. They are commonly used in the automotive and aerospace industries, where reduced weight can improve fuel efficiency.

Brass: Brass inserts are known for their excellent corrosion resistance and aesthetics. They are often used in decorative applications or where electrical conductivity is required. However, brass is softer than steel and therefore may not be suitable for high stress applications.

Plastic: Plastic thread inserts are lightweight and corrosion-resistant, making them suitable for use in electronic equipment and other environments where moisture is a concern. However, they may not provide the same strength as metal inserts.
