What is the purpose of a threaded insert?
A threaded insert is a fastener used to create a strong, durable threaded hole in a material that cannot directly support a traditional screw or bolt, such as softer metals, plastics, or composites. Primary uses for threaded inserts include:
Strengthened Joints: Threaded Inserts provide a strong threaded connection, enhancing joint strength in assemblies where the base material may be weak or prone to stripping.
Repair Stripped Threads: If a threaded hole is stripped or damaged, a threaded insert can be installed to restore the functionality of the hole so that the screw or bolt can be reinstalled.
Easy to assemble: They allow for easier assembly and disassembly of components, making maintenance and repairs simpler.
Provide versatility: Threaded inserts can accommodate different sizes and types of screws, providing flexibility in design and assembly.
Reduced wear: In applications where screws are frequently installed and removed, thread inserts help reduce wear on the base material and extend the life of the component.
Threaded inserts come in a variety of designs, such as helical coil inserts, keyed inserts, and solid inserts, and can be installed using different methods, including press-in, screw-down, or adhesive bonding, depending on the specific application and material.
