Product Selection Differences for Blind Threaded Inserts

When selecting Blind Threaded Inserts, there are several key differences to consider. Some of the important factors include:

  1. Material: Blind threaded inserts are available in various materials such as stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and carbon steel. The material choice should be based on the application's requirements for factors like strength, corrosion resistance, and conductivity.

  2. Thread type: Blind threaded inserts come in different thread types such as coarse, fine, and metric threads. The thread type should match the corresponding bolt or screw for a secure and reliable connection.

  3. Installation method: Blind threaded inserts can be installed using different methods such as press-in, heat or ultrasonic installation, or self-tapping. The installation method should be chosen based on the material being fastened, accessibility, and required speed of installation.

  4. Load-bearing capacity: Consider the maximum load or weight the blind threaded insert needs to support. Choose an insert with the appropriate load-bearing capacity to ensure a strong and durable connection.

  5. Size and length: Select a blind threaded insert size and length that matches the thickness of the materials being joined. The insert should provide enough engagement depth for the bolt or screw to ensure a secure connection.

  6. Application requirements: Consider the specific requirements of the application, such as resistance to vibration, temperature fluctuations, or environmental conditions. Choose a blind threaded insert that meets these specific requirements to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

By carefully considering these factors, you can select the most suitable blind threaded insert for your application.
