Threaded nut inserts for expansion anchoring in thermoset and thermoplastic parts!
AMTEC® stands for – After Molding TECHnology – and refers to the installation of threaded nut inserts into plastic components after-molding. The AMTEC QUICKSERT® EXPANSION insert is spun on to the rotating threaded mandrel of the installation tool and inserted into the mounting hole. This hole may be performed or created as a blind or through hole using a standard drill. The axial pulling action of the mandrel makes the thread insert shear at the predetermined breaking point between the anchoring sleeve and the threaded bush. The bush is drawn into the anchoring sleeve and expands it. Meanwhile, the diamond knurling of the anchoring sleeve is pressed into the wall of the hole. The thread insert is now securely anchored to prevent twisting or pull-out.
