Product Description
The Heli-Coil 1084-3CN045 by STANLEY® Engineered Fastening is a high-performance tanged free-running wire insert engineered to reinforce and protect M3 x 0.5 coarse internal threads in soft material assemblies. Cold-rolled from precision stainless steel wire with a diamond-shaped cross section, this insert automatically expands outward upon installation into a tapped hole to establish a secure, spring-like retention force. By compensating for thread pitch and angle variances, it ensures uniform load distribution across the engaged threads, providing a permanent, wear-resistant connection that defends components against stripping and wear.
-
Free-Running Profile: Delivers an unobstructed internal thread track, allowing mating M3 x 0.5 fasteners to rotate smoothly without added locking friction.
-
Stainless Steel Construction: Precision-formed from durable stainless steel to provide strong thread reinforcement and reliable corrosion resistance.
-
Tanged Configuration: Features a traditional installation tang that ensures positive engagement with standard installation tools for accurate depth control.
-
Optimized Load Distribution: The flexible diamond-shaped wire structure yields uniform contact pressure along the engagement length, minimizing stress concentrations and extending assembly fatigue life.
