About this thread insert

This is a thread insert in 304 Stainless Steel, at strength class A2-70, supplied plain, with an M2 thread. Every dimension is stated against the standard named above; where a tolerance class matters to your design, ask us and we will confirm it in writing before you order.

A thread insert repairs a stripped thread or reinforces a thread in a softer parent material, so a steel fastener can be used again and again in aluminium, plastic or castings. Used on castings, moulds, aluminium housings and any assembly that is dismantled often enough for the original thread to wear out.

M2 is a metric thread with an 2 mm nominal diameter and a coarse pitch of 0.4 mm (ISO 261). A standard hex head takes a 4 mm spanner across the flats.

A2-70 is 304 stainless, cold worked to a 700 MPa minimum tensile and 450 MPa 0.2% proof stress. It is the default stainless grade for general purpose bolts and screws.

Sold by the piece, so one is a valid order. Stock lines leave our warehouse within 24–48 hours of cleared payment, and freight is calculated at checkout from the packed weight and the destination.
