Pt#, Series 10. Self-tapping Brass Insert, 10PK

8-32x 5/16 Brass, Self-tapping Insert, Series 10

• •Self-Tapping Inserts are available in Series 10 which is a Thread Forming Insert for soft, flexible thermoplastics
• •Self-Tapping Inserts provide the best pull-out resistance for a post-mold installed Insert. The threads are designed with a thin profile to minimize inducing stress into the plastic and a relative coarse pitch to provide the maximum plastic shear surface to resist pull-out.
• •Installation torque is not a problem in that tightening increases the friction between the plastic and threads, and the larger diameter of the external Insert thread increases the frictional surface. Back-out torque performance relies totally on the greater surface area of the external Insert thread and the tension between the threads and plastic.
