Knurled Inserts

Product Description

Increase Product Reliability with Knurled Threaded Inserts

Knurled threaded inserts are used in conjunction with fasteners. Inserts can be threaded to ensure a perfect fit with mating parts.  Many insert applications are manufactured with threads for assembly of components.  However, threading is not always a durable system as the threads molded into the application might wear or break if they are accessed regularly.

Knurled threaded inserts are durable and can assist in removal of the screw multiple times. Using the right product not only reduces chances of damage but also increases product reliability. This reduces time and money spent in repairs, maintenance, and unplanned downtime.
