As the male thread passes through these grip coils, the locking flats are displaced, thereby exerting radial pressure and prevailing locking torque on the male thread. Threaded inserts are designed to be placed into existing holes to provide a threaded receptacle so that screws, bolts or other fixings can be installed.

Self Tapping Inserts have the added benefit of reducing wear within machinery which requires frequent clamping and unclamping. These engineering components can convert unthreaded holes for use with machine screws and are particularly useful in housing materials which have a low shear strength, as the large diameter of the insert increases the thread engagement and load-bearing capabilities of a fastening. With Reinforced Threaded Inserts we also offer a version with a stronger cross-section for use in applications with greater stress.
