Fasteners: Threaded InsertsSquaresert® - Large Flange / Open End
Description
The Squaresert™ insert (offered in metric sizes only) is a steel, square
shaped, bubbling insert offered with a large flange. Bubbling means that
during the installation process, the insert collapses into a bubble shape
on the backside of the application material. The application material is
clamped between the flange of the insert and the bubble shape resulting in
high resistance to pull-out loads. Because the insert forms a bubble on the
backside of the application, the Squaresert™ insert cannot be used in
blind hole applications.
The bubble also serves as a load bearing surface, which absorbs the force of setting the insert. Otherwise the setting force, or clamp load, could spread into the application material and might damage the material. This makes the Squaresert™ insert ideal for use in thin sheet, soft, brittle and low strength materials.
The square shape of the Squaresert™ insert offers the greatest resistance
to turning of any threaded insert. The square shape improves torque-to-turn
in metallic sheets by up to 350% compared to plain body inserts making the
Squaresert™ insert ideal for automotive body mountings requiring maximum
turning resistance. The large flange provides a large load bearing surface,
reinforces the application hole and prevents push through.
