THREAD INSERTS AMECOIL® SR

Product catalog summary
Overview: AMECOIL® SR thread inserts are introduced as a new generation of fasteners designed for durable and high-quality assemblies across various industrial sectors. These inserts are made from diamond-shaped wire, forming precise concentric threads with an engaging tang for quick insertion.
General Characteristics: The SR Range offers enhanced features over the classic range, including easier fitting, improved reliability, and compatibility with existing tooling. It is more economical and ergonomic, enhancing productivity.
Material Specifications: The inserts are available in various materials, including standard 18.8 stainless steel (AISI 304, 302) with a maximum operating temperature of 425°C. Special materials like phosphor bronze and Inconel X 750 are available for specific applications, offering resistance to acids, corrosion, and high temperatures.
Operational Advantages: AMECOIL thread inserts provide benefits such as resistance to loosening, even load distribution, and corrosion resistance. They simplify locking systems and are suitable for original equipment, repairs, and reworking.
Fitting and Tools: The document details the fitting principles, including drilling, tapping, and breaking the engaging tang. Various hand and automatic fitting tools are available for different applications, ensuring precise and efficient installation.
Applications: The inserts are suitable for all normal applications across different materials, with special options for high-temperature and corrosive environments, such as aerospace and thermal power stations.
Specifications: The document outlines various codes for different components such as nose, assembly, and tools. It includes specific codes for diameter and pitch, indicating a structured system for identifying parts.
Tools and Equipment:
  • Multidimensional Tools: These tools come with a threaded driver and are designed for accessing difficult areas. Specific hand fitting tools are recommended for AMECOIL SR, ensuring the thread insert is fully screwed onto the driver before insertion.
  • Automatic Fitting Tooling: Pneumatic tools for AMECOIL are multidimensional and come with various accessories. The fitting depth is adjustable with spacers.
Thread Inserts: The external diameter of thread inserts is larger than the tapped hole, requiring tools to reduce the diameter for fitting. AMECOIL-SR tools are suitable for both loose and plastic strip delivered inserts.
AMELOCK® Nut: This is a safety nut using a deformed AMECOIL AF thread insert, offering advantages like vibration resistance and high-temperature tolerance.
Fitting and Extraction Tools:
  • Tang Break Extractor: Used to break the engaging tang on the insert, allowing screw insertion.
  • Automatic Tang Break: A one-handed tool that ensures quick and efficient work.
  • Extractor: Allows removal of thread inserts with a sharp blade that grips the insert.
Advantages of AMECOIL SR Thread Inserts: These inserts are quicker, easier, and cheaper to fit, offering the latest technology without changing existing practices.
Production Programme: The document lists various thread standards and sizes, including ISO metric, British Standard, and Unified National threads.
Additional Products: AMECA offers a range of mechanical fastenings and tools for tapping, fitting, and assembling, ensuring quick and high-quality assembly work.

N.B.: the correct adjustment of the stop does not correspond to the length of the thread insert prior to fitting, so never place the stop and the thread insert in contact. The thread insert is screwed fully onto the driver prior to being inserted directly in the tapped hole.
