Threaded inserts for ceramics are commonly used in two ways - molded-in and pressed-in applications. In molded-in applications, the fasteners are introduced during the production process and the ceramic material is molded and hardened around the metal insert. Alternatively, the metal inserts can be pressed into a pre-drilled hole in the hardened ceramic material, allowing for flexibility in installation methods.
TYPE AA Molded-In Inserts feature a new design for molded-in use. Close tolerance of minor thread diameter and careful burnishing of inner thread crests assure snug fit on locating pins. Smooth ring on open end of insert eliminates knurl teeth showing on surface of molded part.
TYPE BB Molded-In Inserts feature a new design for molded-in use. Close tolerance of minor thread diameter and careful burnishing of inner thread crests assure snug fit on locating pins. Both ends of insert are chamfered to eliminate knurl teeth showing on surface of molded part.
A wide range of threaded inserts featuring patented designs for molded-in use. Close tolerance of minor thread diameter and careful burnishing of inner thread crests assure snug fit on pins. Extremely flat ends on inserts (with no burrs, ridges or other defects) mean no leakage of material on the face of the mold. Available in Brass, Aluminum and Stainless Steel.
Spiral knurled, open or closed-ended inserts for pressing into soft materials such as plastics, foamed plastics and rubber. Ideal for use where minimal pull-out strength is needed, but some torque resistance is required. Can also be molded-in and feature patented I.D. design for use with locating pins. Available in Brass and Aluminum.
Threaded stud inserts featuring patented designs for molded-in use. Proportioned for maximum holding strength. Can be screwed to butt flush with a Yardley Type C Insert. Available in Brass.
