S-TYPE CAPTIVE THREADED STUD INSERTS function like the Knurled Blind Threaded Inserts, but leave a threaded stud protruding from the panel after installation. Components can then be attached, and secured by a mating nut. These studs can be used in place of clinch or weld studs, before or after finish. Optional head designs include a weathertight PVC foam sealed head, or a wedged head for more torque capabilities.
As these are installed, the knurled body expands 360° to fill the hole, creating exceptional torque strength and resistance to vibration. A backside flange is also formed, even in multiple thicknesses of materials without any need for adjustments. These inserts are to be used with Grade 5 or Metric 8.8/9.8 non thread locking type nuts.
All sizes available are listed on this page, in a representative sampling of materials and finishes. Contact EFC International directly for any sizes not shown in the specific material, finish, or design your application requires.
