METSERT-M2TOOLInstallation Tool for Key Locking Threaded Inserts-M2
Our threaded inserts are an excellent choice for designers seeking connection methods between two panels that will be durable, strong and, most importantly, reliable. Not every insert will suit every application, which is why we have a curated collection of inserts, including these M2-M4 threaded inserts.
Threaded Inserts for Replacing Damaged or Worn Threads
Machine designers frequently use M2-M4 stainless steel key-locking threaded inserts to enhance the durability and reliability of their assemblies, particularly when working with softer or more brittle materials such as aluminium, magnesium, or certain plastics.
Our inserts are easy to install and remove, with no specialised drills or pre-winder tools required. The keys are driven down into the threads of the surrounding base material, locking the insert securely in place.
