Molded In Inserts

Apex Fasteners features a variety of Molded In Inserts. Typical assembly requires that the insert be screwed onto a post inside the mold cavity and then plastic or in some cases metal is injected into the mold. On cooling the screw or post in the mold is removed leaving strong threads positioned precisely where they should be.

Typically Molded In Inserts are blind so that the injected plastic will not enter the threads. The inserts are manufactured out of brass or stainless steel but we can produce special inserts in unique materials on request.

All of our inserts are available in both standard and metric threads. Of note is the available thread depths and we differentiate our part numbers based on how many full threads the insert has available.
