Threaded Inserts from Micron Components

Why use Threaded Inserts?

Threaded inserts are used in non-metal products where reusable and strong assembly threads are required.

Typically, products made from thermoplastic plastics, thermosetting plastics, composite plastics, or timber will benefit from the use of inserts in the manufacturing process.

Threaded Inserts are usually produced in brass, stainless steel, or electroplated steel.
