Contact SupplierPlastic molding threaded inserts are small metal components that are inserted into plastic parts during the molding process to provide a durable, threaded surface for fasteners to screw into. They are often used in applications where a plastic component needs to be joined to another component or secured to a surface.
The inserts come in various shapes and sizes, including straight knurl, diamond knurl, and hexagonal. They are typically made of materials such as brass, stainless steel, or zinc-plated steel, which provide excellent resistance to corrosion and wear. During the molding process, the inserts are placed into the mold cavity and held in place by a specialized tool. Once the plastic is injected into the mold and allowed to cool, the insert becomes permanently embedded in the plastic part. The result is a strong and reliable threaded surface that can withstand repeated use and frequent tightening and loosening.
Plastic molding threaded inserts are used in a wide range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, and consumer goods. They can be found in everything from electronic devices to household appliances to medical equipment. Overall, plastic molding threaded inserts provide a cost-effective and efficient solution for creating strong and reliable threaded surfaces in plastic parts. They are easy to install and can help improve the overall performance and durability of plastic components.
