Wire thread inserts are precisely formed stainless steel coils that are installed into pre-tapped threads in the base material.
They are designed to reinforce threads in softer materials such as aluminum, magnesium, or plastic, and are also used to repair damaged or worn threads.
Thanks to their design, they provide high-strength thread engagement, excellent resistance to wear, corrosion, and temperature extremes and allow repeated screw insertions and removals without damaging the primary thread.
