Steel inserts are precision-engineered metal components designed to create strong, reusable threads in softer base materials such as plastic, wood, or aluminum. They are installed into pre-drilled holes using methods like pressing, heating, or molding, depending on the type of insert.These inserts significantly improve the durability and load-bearing capacity of threaded joints, preventing wear, stripping, and loosening over time. Common types include threaded inserts, heat-set inserts, press-fit inserts, and self-tapping inserts.They are widely used in automotive parts, electronics, furniture, and industrial assemblies where reliable fastening and long service life are required.
