Self- locking Key locking threaded Insert

Product Definition
Self-locking Key locking threaded Insert is a one-piece key-locking threaded insert with internal and external threads. The external thread is equipped with 2 to 4 pin keys (usually 2 for sizes below M6). After installation, the pins are pressed into the parent material to form a mechanical locking structure, effectively preventing loosening or rotation caused by vibration or torque.

    Common materials include:

    Carbon steel 

    Such as C1215, with phosphate anti-rust treatment.

    Advantages

    ◎ Vibration-Resistant and Anti-Loosening: The latch key provides a strong mechanical lock, suitable for high-vibration environments.

    ◎ Thread Repair: Quickly repairs stripped or damaged internal threads, extending the life of the parent material.

    ◎ Strength Enhancement: Provides high-strength threaded connections in low-strength materials (e.g., aluminum, magnesium, and plastics).

    ◎ Reusable: The threaded insert can be removed and replaced with a new one without damaging the original threaded hole.

    ◎ Easy Installation Convenient: No special tools are required; installation can be completed using a standard drill and tap.
