About this thread insert
This is a thread insert in 304 Stainless Steel, at strength class A2-70, supplied plain, with an M3 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.
Plain (self-colour) means no coating. On 304 and 316 stainless that is fine — the alloy passivates on its own. On carbon steel it will rust, so choose a coated option instead.
M3 is a metric thread with an 3 mm nominal diameter and a coarse pitch of 0.5 mm (ISO 261). A standard hex head takes a 5.5 mm spanner across the flats.
There is no minimum order and no free-shipping threshold: buy one piece or a full container. Your order total is confirmed in the cart, before payment.
