Product Description
The Heli-Coil 1084-6CN060 is a high-strength free-running wire thread insert designed to deliver permanent, wear-resistant internal threads in lightweight metals, alloys, and composite host materials. Precision-formed from cold-drawn 304 stainless steel wire with a uniform diamond-shaped cross-section, this tanged insert features a spring-like helical profile that expands outward to grip tapped parent threads securely. Utilizing a streamlined free-running configuration, it allows male metric fasteners to thread smoothly without added prevailing torque or rotational drag until final clamp load is established. The dynamic wire structure distributes load stresses evenly across the assembly, providing outstanding stripping protection, corrosion resistance, and joint durability.
Free-Running Profile Delivers an uninhibited thread path that permits standard metric fasteners to turn freely through the helical coil without added friction.
Standard Driving Tang Engineered with an integrated drive tang on the leading coil for reliable manual or power tool engagement and precise depth control.
Austenitic Stainless Steel ConstructionManufactured from work-hardened 304 stainless steel wire to shield soft host materials from internal thread stripping, galling, and wear.
Balanced Stress Distribution Compensates for pitch and angle errors in tapped holes, dispersing concentrated loads uniformly across all engaged threads to maximize fatigue strength.
