HELICOIL INSERTS
HELICOIL THREAD INSERTS
📌 Overview
The Stainless Steel Helicoil Insert is a precision-engineered wire thread insert designed to repair, reinforce, and strengthen threaded holes in metal and soft materials. By providing a high-strength stainless steel internal thread, helicoil inserts restore damaged threads or create wear-resistant threads stronger than the original base material.
Manufactured from AISI 304 / AISI 316 stainless steel, helicoil inserts deliver excellent mechanical strength, heat resistance, and corrosion protection, making them ideal for automotive, aerospace, industrial machinery, electronics, and maintenance applications.
