Brass insert range is for inserting in moulds

A range of brass inserts intended to be placed in a plastics mould prior to plastics injection can be used in applications where torque and pull-out/through resistance are required.
Brass insert range is for inserting in moulds A range of brass inserts intended to be placed in a plastics mould prior to plastics injection can be used in applications where torque and pull-out/through resistance are required. Spirol Industries now has available a new family of brass inserts intended to be placed in a plastic mould prior to plastic injection. They can be used in applications where torque and pull-out/through resistance are required.

The new hexagonal moulded-in insert family has a hexagonal head on each end and a large centre undercut.

This design provides a high level of bi-directional torque resistance and high tensile strength.

Two moulded-in inserts are available, Spirol Series 40 is a through hole moulded-in insert and Spirol Series 44 a blind-end moulded-in insert.

They do not require any specialized insertion tools as the operator places the insert directly into the mould prior to plastic injection.

In addition, Spirol has designed this insert to simplify orientation and placement on to the mould core pin, thereby increasing productivity and reducing potential scrap rates.
