Threaded Inserts

Threaded Inserts

Threaded inserts create durable, reusable threads inside materials like metals, wood, and plastic. They get installed into a pre-drilled hole, then the external threads slice into the surrounding material to grip it firmly. This anchors the internal threads securely inside the hole without damaging it. Machine screws can then be threaded in and out without wearing out the threads.

What are Threaded Inserts?

Threaded inserts are cylindrical fasteners that screw into a pre-tapped hole to create durable, reusable internal threads. The external threads on the insert cut into the host material to provide a solid, vibration-resistant connection.

Threaded inserts are a versatile solution for a wide range of applications. Our threaded inserts can fix stripped or weak threads in machines or furniture.

One of the key advantages of threaded inserts is their ability to create strong and reliable connections. The insert's threads grip the material so it stays secure if vibrating. This feature makes them ideal for use in high-stress environments or applications that require frequent disassembly and reassembly.

In addition to their strength, these inserts also offer the benefit of being reusable. Threaded inserts can replace worn threads without damaging the material around the hole. This not only saves time and money but also allows for easy maintenance and repairs.
