Install Threaded Inserts

Installing threaded inserts creates reusable threads in various materials, providing the right solution for your project needs. These innovative fasteners transform a simple hole into a robust threaded hole that accommodates repeated screw insertion and removal. Whether working with wood, metal, or plastic part applications, proper installation ensures reliable performance. Brass inserts offer superior corrosion resistance and durability for demanding environments. The installation process involves drilling the correct hole size, then carefully threading or pressing the insert into the material. Professional services can assist with complex installations or large-volume projects. Once installed, threaded inserts provide permanent threading solutions that eliminate the risk of stripped threads. This makes Nutty products them ideal for furniture assembly, automotive applications, and manufacturing where frequent disassembly is required for maintenance or repairs.

FAQ
