Suppliers of Moulded-In Threaded Inserts

Finding dependable suppliers of moulded-in threaded inserts is harder than it should be. Harrison Silverdale makes it straightforward. The Dronfield-based business has supplied specialised fasteners since 1982 and works with manufacturers and distributors throughout the UK and Europe.

About Moulded-In Inserts

Moulded-in inserts are loaded into the tool before the shot and the plastic flows around them. That gives the highest pull-out and torque performance of any insert type, which is why they're used on load-bearing and safety-related parts. Blind-ended designs are often chosen to stop plastic creeping into the thread during moulding.

Choosing the Right Moulded-In Inserts

Moulding-in adds a loading step to the cycle, so it pays to be sure it's the right call. Harrison Silverdale can talk through moulded-in, heat set and press-in options and help weigh performance against cycle time and cost.

Typical

• Load-bearing plastic brackets and mounts
