Description: The Trisert Regular Headed is a self-tapping insert. Its main feature is the truncated external thread form with three equidistant cutting flutes.

Application: Particularly suitable where there is a large or slotted clearance hole in the mating component. Also suitable for pull-through applications or where the inert head is required to sit proud of the boss surface. Trisert Advanced should be specified for thin walls, hard Urea, Melamine and Phenolic materials or similar.

Hole Size: Moulded and drilled hole diameters vary dependent upon installation technique, specific component geometry and plastic material. Please consult our technical department for a precise recommendation, to ensure optimum production conditions. Sizes given are for reference purposes only.

Hole Design: The hole design information is intended to indicate the approximate dimensional requirements for satisfactory installation of the insert. They should not be specified for production tooling without prior consultation with our Application Engineering Department - we accept no responsibility should the use of this information without consultation result in product failure. Please call our application engineers for assistance +44 (0) 1789 206600

Installation: Self-tapping using a hand tool (part no.031) or reversible drive mechanism. Tappex offer pneumatic reversible tools mounted in a Tappex FlexiArm, used in conjunction with a Tappex production driver (part no.029).

MANY VARIATIONS ON ALL OUR STANDARD PARTS, INCLUDING MALE INSERTS, ARE AVAILABLE. IMPERIAL THREAD SIZES USE NEAREST METRIC EQUIVALENT FOR EXTERNAL DETAIL. PLEASE CONTACT US WITH YOUR REQUIREMENTS.
