AL Type Knurled Inserts with Large Sealed Head
(60) The Knurled Insert with Large Sealed Head combines all the features of the standard knurled inserts plus weathertight security provided by a PVC foam seal bonded to the underside of the head. These sealed inserts will withstand 50 PSI (3.4bars) of pressure and can be used in punched or drilled holes. During insertion, the knurled body expands 360º to fill the hole creating exceptional torque strength and resistance to vibration. A backside flange also forms, even in multiple thicknesses of materials without any need for adjustments. /Asset/06631-a_2.jpg
AO Type Small Diameter Low Profile Blind Threaded Inserts
(24) Small Diameter Low Profile Blind Threaded Inserts have reduced profile heads and smaller diameter bodies to provide excellent spin out resistance in smaller holes or close to edge applications. During insertion, the insert's body expands 360º to fill the hole, thus creating exceptional torque strength and vibration resistance. A backside flange is also formed, even in multiple material thicknesses, without any need for adjustments. /Asset/06636_a_1.jpg
AW Type Knurled Blind Threaded Inserts for Soft Materials
(73) Knurled Inserts for Soft Materials can be installed into most materials softer than the insert, and which are thicker than 0.062in/1.57mm. During insertion, the threaded nut portion is drawn up into the sleeve portion, providing 360º swaging for exceptional shear strength and pull out resistance, especially in thick fiberglass and plywood's. They are available in Steel and Brass, with 3 finish options. The brass version is particularly useful in the fiberglass boat industry. /Asset/06623-a.jpg

Inserts for Plastics
EFC offers threaded Inserts for Plastic from SPIROL including Heat/Ultrasonic, Molded-In, Press-In, and Self-Tapping Inserts. Our standard Inserts have been designed for a broad set of plastic applications.
________________________________________
Heat/Ultrasonic Inserts
Series 19 Straight Hole and Series 20 Flanged — Designed for straight holes to yield maximum performance with low radial stress.
Series 29 Standard and Series 30 Flanged — Symmetrical for ease of orientation and enhanced performance designed to maximize torque and pull out values.
Series 14 Tapered Hole — Tapered design for tapered holes for ease of location and reduced installation time.
Self-Tapping Inserts
Series 10 Thread Forming — Self-Tapping Inserts are versatile. They can be used in more plastics, including thermoset plastics, while providing the highest, most consistent pullout strength.
Press-In Inserts
Series 50 Symmetrical and Series 51 Headed — Press-In Inserts are designed to be pressed into a plastic hole without melting the plastic prior to installation. They offer rapid installation with no specialized equipment and achieve good overall joint performance.
Molded-In Inserts
Series 63 Through-Hole and Series 65 Blind End — Molded-In Inserts are designed for maximum pull-out and torque performance, and are often the Insert of choice for thermosets and engineered plastics with a high percentage of filler. The minor thread diameter tolerance is controlled to ensure positive positioning and perpendicularity of the Insert on the core pin during the molding process. Series 63 is symmetrical eliminating orientation. Series 65 is the same body style in a blind ended version.
