How to Design the Proper Hole to Maximize Performance of Threaded Inserts

Aug. 29, 2022
To maximize the performance of Threaded Inserts in plastic assemblies, the hole must be properly designed. This White Paper details critical design guidelines for plastic components that use Inserts – including what to do when fillers are used.

   Threaded Inserts for Plastics allow designers to replace metal components with plastic to significantly reduce costs and weight. In order to maximize and balance the tensile and rotational torque performance of Threaded Inserts, the hole within the plastic assembly into which the Insert is installed must be properly designed. This White Paper details the optimum design guidelines for the holes in plastic assemblies that use Inserts – including what to do when fillers are used.
