STANDARDIZED MOLDED-IN INSERTS
A wide range of threaded inserts featuring patented designs for molded-in use. Close tolerance of minor thread diameter and careful burnishing of inner thread crests assure snug fit on pins. Extremely flat ends on inserts (with no burrs, ridges or other defects) mean no leakage of material on the face of the mold.

FIBER-SERT
Special design makes them ideal for wood, particle board, ABS and foamed plastics. Large coarse outer threads give great holding power in weaker materials while inside threads stay clean, free of chips. Install with Yardley pneumatic inserter or easy-to-use self-tapping driver.
Available in Brass and Diecast
Pressed-In  Aluminum
Soft Metals
QUICK-SERT
Designed for fast easy press-in installation, providing permanent threads in aluminum and other soft metals. Its smooth tapered lead allows easy positioning for quick starts in a pre-drilled hole and the knurled body locks tightly in the host material. Its thick wall design prevents thread distortion. Available in Plated Steel
Molded-In  Thermoset Plastics Thermoplastics Glass-filled Plastics BI-SERT INSERTS
Specifically designed for the Rotational Molding process, this versatile insert provides exceptional torque and pull-out resistance. Unique Hex design allows the Bi-Sert to be used with fibrous materials where the fibers would normally block the flow of the plastic material around ordinary diamond knurled inserts. Inside diameter held to strict tolerances for a smooth, tight fit on locating pins.
