Threaded metal inserts

Insertion is a way to create a connection that can be assembled and disassembled repeatedly without problems. A metal part is inserted into the thermoplastic part and the connection is made using a standard screw or bolt.

Bosses are required in most cases. They should be properly designed to avoid sink-marks, internal stresses and warpage. Sink-marks will be less visible on dull surfaces, light colours, machined surfaces and round edges.
