Threaded inserts for plastic are specialist fasteners used to create a reusable metal thread inside plastic housings, mouldings, and fabricated parts. These self tapping inserts cut into the plastic during installation, offering excellent holding strength and long term reliability. They are commonly used where a plastic component needs to accept machine screws repeatedly without the risk of stripping the plastic thread.
