Male Threaded Heat-Set Insert for Plastic M6 x 1.00 mm Thread Size

With the male threaded end on these inserts mount components directly to plastic parts. The other end has two bands of diagonal knurls that face opposite directions to resist torque and pulling out. Heat the inserts on a hot plate then press the knurled end into a straight hole. The heat melts the surrounding plastic and as it cools it hardens around the knurls.Compared to 3D printed or other plastic male threads that wear down when used over and over these inserts are brass which create a stronger fastening base. Brass is also corrosion resistant nonmagnetic and can be used as an electrical contact.
