1: Press in threaded inserts
2: High torque performance
3: Low bursting stress allows the use of thinner wall requcing the risk of repture
4; Designed for hard and brittle thermosetting plastics(Ureas,Tufnol etc)
General description:
Designed to deal with the difficulties posed by hard and brittle thermosets.
A sharp precision knurl pattern cuts into these materials, reducing radial stress and allowing for thinner boss walls than many other inserts.
Advantage:
Easy press-fit insertion.
High torque resistance.
Low burst stress allows the use of thinner wall bosses, reducing the risk of sink marks.
Self Alignment - Assisted Installation.
Installation:
The blade must be installed using an extruder, never hit with a hammer. The insert must be rotated in the direction of the knurl when installed, this is best achieved by using a punch with a polished face or thrust bearing, the hole size must not exceed the maximum tolerance limit, as oversized holes will reduce or eliminate self-alignment effects, Risk of developing side loads and consequent boss cracking.
