IMTEC® Moulded inserts – Thread inserts for in-moulding The continuous further development in the field of technology has led to constantly increasing requirements for components and respective applications. In many cases, those requirements are so high, that they cannot be fulfilled with one material. Therefore, combining specific advantages of different materials is of particular interest. If used appropriately, combinations of metal and plastics provide for advantages such as reduced weight, improved corrosion resistance and component cleanliness. Hence, in many fields of application,...

IMTEC® Moulded inserts – Product types Böllhoff offers with the IMTEC® moulded inserts two innovative product developments for in-moulding of metal threads in plastic components: n IMTEC® CO – Particularly for generation of blind hole threads n IMTEC® CF – Particularly for generation of through hole threads IMTEC® CO The IMTEC® CO thread insert for in-moulding is an asymmetric rolled stainless steel A2 (option A4) wire which is mainly used for customer components with blind hole threads. That wire is coiled to form a fixed bushing with at least one flange-type extension. In the forming...
