The HEAT-SERT are inserts for plastic with heat/ultrasonic installation into cylindrical holes

Suitable for all types of thermoplastics

Designed for installation in notch-sensitive amorphous thermoplastic materials. The rounded knurling reduces stress on the contact surface while avoiding stress on the material in which it is inserted

Installation must be carried out using heat conduction or ultrasonic machines. The holes should be sized as indicated in the product datasheet

They are available in unheaded and headed (flanged) versions. Headed (flanged) version provides bearing surface for the mating component to prevent jack-out. Also a screw can be inserted on the opposite side of the flange, allowing to achieve very high pull-out resistance. It also ensures a large contact area, which is useful for electrical contacts and specific applications

Unheaded inserts in addition are symmetrical so they do not need to be oriented during installation process

Also known as HEAT-LOK, with equivalent shape, features and dimensions
