High-Strength Hexsert Threaded Insert
High-quality High-Strength Hexsert Threaded Insert
The Avdel High Strength Hexsert is a threaded insert which provides a clamp force comparable to weld nuts and clinch nuts in high torque applications. The hexagonal shape and large flange gives the High Strength Hexsert exceptional torque-to-turn strength in thin sheet materials whilst having safeguards against over tightening which can lead to thread stripping and the need for expensive rework.
Key Features
Features include:
- Exceptional torque capability
- High speed assembly
- Provides high-strength threads in thin materials starting at 0.5mm
