AMTEC® High-strength thread inserts for plastic components

Under the name of AMTEC®, Böllhoff offers thread inserts as well as the respective assembly systems for the after-moulding technology. The thread inserts are especially designed for after-moulding insertion. The result are wear-free, high-strength threads in your high-quality plastic components. They are suited for the installation in mouldings of thermoset, thermoplastic or reaction resin materials (also filled or foamed). There are various installation methods: n Thermal installation – heated element welding, electromagnetic resistance welding n Ultrasonic welding n Expansion anchoring n...

The variants – thread inserts for thermal installation HITSERT® 2 Your advantages n Ideal for thermoplastic components n Especially designed for thermal installation and inductive insertion n Screw-locked and low-stress anchoring n High pull-out values n Efficient installation with manual, semi-automatic installation machines or automatic machines with preheating device The principle The HITSERT® 2 thread insert is heated to the melting temperature of the plastic. From the heat transfer during insertion, the plastic is temporarily plasticised and flows into the undercut of the thread...

Mounting hole➀ For installation tools and machines, please see pages 21–23 Type 0940 item code Type 0941➂ item code Metric ISO thread according to DIN 13–6g. Technical changes reserved. All measures in mm. ➀ Guideline values: depend on the moulding material, may have to be changed after installation tests. ➁ For blind holes we recommend to use core pins with ventilation bars. Feel free to request our company standard. ➂ The flange has a large contact surface and thus reduces the surface pressure. Above-mentioned items on request. Other lengths, sizes, materials and special designs a

The variants – thread inserts for thermal installation, HITSERT® Screwlock Your advantages n High pull-out values n Ideal for thermoplastic parts n Reduced weight n HELICOIL® Screwlock allows up to 15 screwing cycles n Complies with many aeronautical standards: – Locking torques as per NASM 8846 – Test load values as per NASM 25027 n ... The principle The HITSERT® Screwlock combines the advantages of the aluminium HITSERT® 2 and the stainless steel HELICOIL® Screwlock (as per NASM 21209). This combination offers you essential advantages for screw joints with high requirements. The screw is...
