Soni-Tek Insert with 5.0mm stud, M2x4.0-OD3.5-S5.0, Stainless steel SUS303
General description:
Featuring a unique combination of opposed knurled and knurled blades, offering a higher level of performance even surpassing Sonic-Lok inserts. The symmetrical nature of the insert simplifies installation and eliminates the need for orientation during automatic or manual feeding.
Advantage:
Double head - auxiliary automatic feeding.
Improves pullout and torque performance.
Self-Aligning - Assisted Installation.
Allows for thin boss walls to allow for compact boss designs.
Installation:
Fasteners are designed to be installed using a preheat process, care must be taken to ensure that the fasteners soften but do not melt the plastic, this will avoid the tendency for unsightly flash around the top of the insert and ensure optimal performance, excessive stress should be avoided , as this can cause the insert to be forced into the hole without allowing the plastic to soften and flow around the surface profile.
