Aluminum Tapered Heat-Set Inserts for Plastic

Manufacturer part: 97164A108

The tapered shape makes it easier to guide these inserts into a hole during installation. Use a drill bit to create a straight hole, then taper the top half. Heat inserts with a soldering tip so that they melt the plastic when installed. As the plastic cools, it solidifies around the knurls and ridges on the insert for excellent resistance to both torque and pull-out.Aluminum inserts are 70% lighter than brass and 18-8 stainless steel inserts, have good corrosion resistance, and are lead-free. Since they’re lead-free, they can be safely recycled.
