Wire thread inserts - type SN - tangless M 3 x 0.5 - 1.5 D (100 pcs.) | VÖLKEL

Wire thread inserts - type SN - tangless M 3 x 0.5 - 1.5 D (100 pcs.)

You use Wire thread inserts - type SN - tangless M 3 x 0.5 - 1.5 D (100 pcs.) to restore or reinforce an internal thread with a wire thread insert that supports load distribution and repeatable screw engagement. This type of component is used in repair work as well as in softer parent materials where a durable receiving thread is required.

M denotes the ISO metric thread system used widely in mechanical engineering, maintenance and general fastener work where metric screw threads are standard.

Application

  • Restoring stripped or worn internal threads after the receiving thread has been prepared correctly
  • Building a durable insert based internal thread in materials that benefit from improved wear resistance at the joint
  • Using the insert in maintenance, overhaul and serial repair tasks with repeat fastener engagement
  • Process: manual driving or assisted driving depending on your holder and machine setup
  • Use: thread cutting, re tapping, and thread cleaning depending on condition

Note Select the product by thread designation, workpiece condition and the holder concept used in your process.

Benefits

  • Matched repair logic supports repeatable restoration of an existing thread designation
  • Insert based repair can improve service life of the receiving thread in repeated assembly work
  • Suitable for maintenance, overhaul and workshop repairs where part replacement is undesirable
  • Clear assignment between preparation, tapping and insert installation reduces handling errors
Drawbacks
  • The process depends on the correct repair sequence and is not suitable when the parent material is cracked or too thin for the repair concept.
  • It is a repair system and not the fastest choice when you only need a one time emergency fix without the full preparation steps.

Step by step

  1. Prepare the damaged thread with the correct repair sequence before handling the insert.
  2. Place the insert on the installation tool so the driving feature engages securely.
  3. Start the insert square to the prepared receiving thread and keep the tool aligned.
  4. Wind the insert into position with controlled feed until it sits correctly below the entry face.
  5. Release the installation tool carefully so the insert remains stable in the thread.
  6. Remove the tang where required and verify the repaired thread before assembly.
