Self-tapping inserts, also known as self-threading inserts or thread-cutting inserts, are fasteners designed to create threads in pre-existing holes or in materials where tapping or threading is not practical or possible. These inserts have cutting edges or threads that allow them to create their own threads as they are driven or screwed into a hole. They are commonly used in metal, plastic, and wood applications where they provide strong, reliable threads for screws, bolts, or studs.
Thread Design: Self-tapping inserts have sharp threads that cut into the material, creating internal threads. The threads can be coarse or fine, depending on the application requirements.
Material:Self-tapping inserts are made from various materials such as stainless steel, brass, or steel, depending on the specific application and environmental conditions.
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.
Types: There are different types of self-tapping inserts, including helical inserts (coil inserts), threaded inserts, and slotted inserts, each designed for specific applications and installation methods.
Installation:Self-tapping inserts can be installed using various tools, such as electric or pneumatic screwdrivers, manual screwdrivers, or specialized installation tools. Some self-tapping inserts have features like slots or flanges that aid in their installation.
