Thread Range: Metric M2 × 0.4 up to M24 × 2.5; Imperial #2-56 UNC through ¾-10 UNC.
Body Styles:
– Cutting slotted (302 style) for through holes and rapid machining.
– Cutting bores (307/308 style) for blind holes and maximum torque resistance.
– Thin-wall variants for restricted wall thickness.
Head Options: flush, countersunk 90°, and miniature flange heads for flush or protruding requirements.
Self-tapping threaded inserts
303 Stainless Steel
excellent corrosion resistance and machinability for general-purpose use.
316/316L Stainless Steel
superior pitting and chloride resistance for marine, chemical, and food-processing environments.
4140 Alloy Steel, Zinc-Nickel Plated
high tensile strength and cost-effective for automotive and tooling applications.
Brass C36000
non-sparking and non-magnetic, ideal for electrical housings and precision instruments.
All materials are heat-treated to 40–48 HRC on the external cutting zone, while the internal threads remain at 28–32 HRC to prevent galling.
◎ No Pre-Tapping: External cutting or rolling threads eliminate the need for a separate tap, cutting installation time by 50–70 %.
◎ Strong Load Path: Cold-worked parent material and large thread engagement deliver 1.5–2× the pull-out strength of the original tapped hole.
◎ Vibration & Fatigue Resistance: Undercut or serrated edges lock axially and radially, meeting MIL-STD-1312-8 vibration specifications.
◎ Re-Usability: Threads are hardened but smooth, allowing >50 removal/insert cycles with <5 % torque decay.
◎ Temperature & Chemical Tolerance: Stainless variants operate from –240 °C to +450 °C, pass 1 000 h salt-spray per ASTM B117.
◎ Cost & Weight Savings: Enables thinner wall sections and lighter alloys without sacrificing joint integrity.

◎ Drill the pilot hole to the recommended diameter and depth.
◎ (Optional) Countersink 90° to ensure flush seating.
◎ Using an electric or manual driver set to low RPM, thread the Self-Tapping Insert into the hole until the top is flush with the surface. For plastic or thin metal, a light press-in operation may be used.
◎ Inspect visually; a correctly installed insert will show uniform chips (slotted style) or clean rolled threads (tri-lobe style) and sit flush without protrusion.
◎ Allow any induced stresses to relax (5–10 min for plastics), then torque-test the mating bolt to specification.
