Brass Molded Inserts for Plastics - B1M - Unified Thread

Brass molded threaded Inserts for plastics ensure the longevity and integrity of bolted joints in applications by providing reusable threads. Typically double the diameter of a screw, these inserts increase the shear surface fourfold, significantly enhancing the load-carrying capacity of the bolted plastic joint compared to a joint without a metal threaded Insert. This design prevents thread stripping during screw installation into plastic, allowing the application of the appropriate installation torque.

Moreover, threaded Inserts for plastics offer permanent creep resistance along the entire load path of the thread, preventing loosening and maintaining a durable tightly threaded connection. The installation torque can be applied without damaging the threads, a common issue when screws are directly installed into plastic.

  • Since 1975 Sherex Industries has been providing quality industrial products to America's largest Companies.Quality is a priority with Sherex and we are proud that the brass inserts for plastics are manufactured under theQS9000/ISO9001 certificates.

    Applications for the Threaded Inserts For Plastic vary from communication equipment, the automotive industry,computer industry, and anywhere where strong durable threads are required in plastics.
Molded in place into plastics.
Two primary categories of plastics suitable for brass molded threaded insert installation are thermosets and thermoplastics. Thermosets undergo an irreversible chemical change upon formation and cannot be reformed, requiring Molded-In, Press-In, or Self-Tapping Inserts. Examples of thermosets include Bakelite, epoxies,
