Description

DESCRIPTION:

  • Strength: Due to their flexibility, wire thread inserts create internal threads which have a much improved distribution of residual stress loading when compared with conventional tapped holes, where 75% of the shearing forces are carried by the first three threads in the tapped hole. The flexibility of wire thread inserts helps to compensate for pitch and flank angle errors, inherent in normal tapped holes, and significantly enhances the load bearing capacity by deflecting the residual forces into a helical hoop stress which is dispersed into the wall of the tapped hole. This enables the design to be confidently based on the bolt strength utilising smaller and shorter threads even when used in low strength materials. The high tensile coils of a wire thread insert undergo a diameter reduction during installation. The outward spring-like force of the coils "locks" the insert into place. Each coil can flex independently to contact the greatest amount of parent material thread surface. Both static and dynamic load bearing capabilities are improved.
  • Eliminate Stress: Virtually no stress is introduced into the parent material because there is no staking, locking, swaging or keying in place. The outward "spring action" of the insert holds it in place.
  • Wear Resistance: The combination of material hardness and the brilliant surface finish of wire thread inserts creates internal threads in which wear due to thread friction is virtually eliminated. This is of particular value in applications requiring repeated assembly & disassembly. The low frictional coefficient ensures that virtually all of the applied assembly torque is converted into clamping load, thus providing threads that stay tight.
