The tapered shape makes it easier to guide these inserts into a hole during installation. Use a drill bit to create a straight hole, then taper the top half.

With the male threaded end on these inserts, mount components directly to plastic parts.

A black-phosphate finish provides mild corrosion resistance.

The strongest key-locking inserts we offer, these inserts are made to stringent military specifications.

These inserts come with an installation tool. Drive the keys into the surrounding material for a more secure hold than thread-locking inserts.

Without a prong to break off and retrieve, these inserts are often used where debris could cause damage.

Assortments include various sizes of helical inserts and a tap, a drill bit, and an installation tool for each thread size.

Made of 18-8 stainless steel, these inserts have better corrosion resistance than black-phosphate steel.

Made from brass, these inserts are nonmagnetic, mildly corrosion resistant, and electrically conductive.

Also known as clinch style captive nuts, press these nuts into a drilled or punched hole with an arbor press or similar pressure tool.

Stainless steel press-fit nuts have excellent corrosion resistance in most environments.

About twice as strong as aluminum rivet nuts, these low-profile rivet nuts have a cadmium or tin-zinc plating for corrosion resistance.

These low-profile rivet nuts are one-third the weight of steel and have mild corrosion resistance.

These nuts can be used in channels and tight spaces where round-base weld nuts won't fit.

Weld these nuts to uncoated steel surfaces.

You can weld these nuts to flat and uneven uncoated stainless steel surfaces for a strong permanent hold.

Threads float inside the retainer so you can install a bolt at a slight angle to align with off center parts.

Stainless steel nuts have excellent corrosion resistance in most environments.

About half the strength of medium-strength steel coupling nuts, these metric nuts are for light duty fastening applications.

Place the tip of these tools into an insert and strike them with a hammer to drive the keys into the material. They’re compatible with Keensert® inserts.

Use these installation bits with power drills and drill presses as an alternative to a screwdriver for fast installation.

Place the tip of these tools into installed inserts and push down to trigger the spring-loaded punch to break off the prong.

Screw an insert onto these tools and drive them a quarter to half-turn below the material’s surface.

Nickel-plated steel has some corrosion resistance.

Yellow zinc-plated steel is more corrosion resistant than nickel-plated steel.

Made of 303/304 stainless steel, these mounts resist corrosion from water and most chemicals.
