Oval Threaded Tube Inserts
Oval Threaded Tube Inserts are designed to provide a secure and practical solution for installing adjustable feet, glides, or other threaded components into oval tubing. Manufactured from durable nylon with a steel thread, these inserts offer a balance of strength and cost efficiency, ensuring long-lasting performance in a variety of applications.
These inserts are commonly used in furniture, machinery, and tubular framework, where they enable the attachment of adjustable feet, levelling mounts, or casters. The nylon body provides a snug push-fit inside the tube, while the internal steel thread ensures a reliable connection for M8 or M10 fittings.
Whether you need to add height adjustment, improve stability on uneven surfaces, or secure additional components to tubular structures, Oval Threaded Tube Inserts provide a simple and effective installation method.
How to Choose the Correct Size
To ensure a perfect fit, selecting the correct size of Oval Threaded Tube Inserts is essential. Follow these steps:
- Measure the outside dimensions (width and height) of your oval tube.
- Determine the wall thickness of the tube.
- Subtract the wall thickness from the outside dimensions to find the correct ‘To Fit Tube' size.
We stock these inserts in sizes ranging from 30mm x 15mm to 40mm x 20mm, with M8 and M10 thread options. If you need assistance selecting the right size, our expert team is available to help. Business customers can also request a free sample to test the fit before placing a bulk order.
