Thread Inserts

Thread Inserts thinwall threaded inserts are used to repair stripped, damaged or worn out threads. Additionally, they are employed in original equipment to strengthen threads and extend thread life in soft base materials. Thread inserts have a special thinwall design that allows them to be used with minimum boss requirements to help reduce weight and increase strength. They can be placed closer together than Acme's traditional threaded inserts. They are locked securely into parent material by swaging the upper end of the insert into the wall of the parent material.
