Body: The main body of the Nutsert is usually cylindrical or hexagonal in shape. It has external ridges or knurls to provide grip when it is inserted into a pre-drilled hole.
Threads:Nutserts have internal threads that allow for the insertion of a bolt or screw. These threads can be designed to match various thread standards such as metric, UNC, or UNF.
Shank:The shank of the Nutsert is the portion that is inserted into the pre-drilled hole. It may have serrations or grooves to create a secure grip within the hole.
Groove: The nut also features a groove around its perimeter. This groove serves multiple purposes. Firstly, when the nut is pressed into the hole of the sheet metal, the displaced material (usually the metal around the hole) is pushed into this groove. This creates a secure and tight fit. Secondly, the groove allows for the even distribution of the displaced material, ensuring a stable and flush connection between the nut and the sheet metal.
Head:Nutserts typically have a flat or countersunk head that sits flush with the surface of the material when installed. The head may also have knurls or a hexagonal shape to allow for secure tightening.
