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.

These 18-8 stainless steel inserts have better corrosion resistance than brass inserts and may be mildly magnetic.

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

These aluminum inserts are 70% lighter than brass inserts, electrically conductive, and nonmagnetic. They have good corrosion resistance, which is comparable to brass but not as good as stainless steel.

These 18-8 stainless steel inserts have better corrosion resistance than aluminum inserts and may be mildly magnetic.

The barbed sides keep these securely in place even before a screw is installed.

These inserts are made to stringent military specifications.

Forming the strongest hold of any of our threaded inserts, these inserts have a distorted internal thread to lock screws into place and keys that drive into surrounding material to prevent slipping and rotating.

Made of Nitronic 60 stainless steel, these inserts prevent the screw from binding or sticking without any coating or lubricant that could contaminate particle-free environments.

Eliminating the need for primer, these inserts are coated to resist corrosion when installed in different materials.

A distorted thread grips the screw to resist loosening.

Made of Nitronic 60 stainless steel, these inserts prevent the screw from binding or sticking without any coating or lubricant that could contaminate particle-free environments.

A dry film keeps the screw from sticking or binding in these inserts during installation.

Inserts come with a through-hole tap and installation tool.

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

These press-fit nuts have a nylon insert that grips threads to resist loosening.

These press-fit nuts are tin plated to resist corrosion from chemicals and salt water.

18-8 stainless steel studs have good chemical resistance.

Install Keensert®-style inserts.

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.
