The Ultrasert I insert is a fluted brass insert designed for ultra sonic or heat installation into thermoplastics. The tapered design allows for accurate positioning in the receiving hole ensuring proper alignment prior to installation. The vertical flutes provide resistance to rotation and the stepped inclined ribs are for tensile strength. The gradual external taper optimizes the flow of plastic as the insert/plastic interfaces, permitting a smooth and rapid installation.
- Vertical flutes and horizontal fins provide superior assembly strength
- Tapered design assures rapid and accurate alignment prior to installation
- Flute and fin design provides a chip-free environment
