Threaded Inserts for Thread Repair
Threaded inserts for thread repair are small cylindrical metal components with internal threads that are designed to be inserted into damaged or stripped threaded holes or assemblies. These inserts serve the essential purpose of restoring the functionality of the original threads, providing a robust and durable solution for damaged or weakened threads. Threaded inserts are typically made from materials like stainless steel, brass, or aluminum, depending on the specific application's requirements. They come in various sizes and thread types to match the original threads they are intended to repair. These inserts are widely used in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, manufacturing, and construction, to address issues such as thread wear, corrosion, or stripped threads, which can occur due to repetitive use or other factors.
To use threaded inserts for thread repair, the damaged hole or assembly is first cleaned and prepared. Then, a special tool called an insert driver or installation tool is used to screw the threaded insert into the hole. As the insert is threaded into place, it cuts new, healthy threads within the damaged hole, effectively repairing the damaged or stripped threads. Once the insert is fully installed, it provides a strong and secure threaded surface that can be used for fastening bolts, screws, or other threaded components. Threaded inserts are versatile and can be used in a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, and wood, making them a valuable tool for repairing threads in various applications.
