Product Description
The Heli-Coil® 1185-2BN164 is a free-running, tanged wire thread insert fabricated from phosphor bronze. Engineered to form strong, permanent #8-32 UNC threads in soft parent materials, this insert offers excellent electrical conductivity, low magnetic permeability, and superior corrosion resistance. Its precision-wound helical coil design evenly distributes clamping forces throughout the thread engagement length, shielding tapped holes against thread stripping, wear, and galling.
Phosphor Bronze Construction delivers high electrical conductivity, non-magnetic properties, and resistance to corrosion and wear.
Free-Running Wire Design permits standard male fasteners to pass smoothly through the coil without applying locking friction.
Integrated Drive Tang ensures precise and consistent installation into prepared tapped holes using standard tanged insertion tooling.
#8-32 UNC Coarse Threading reinforces soft metals and repairs damaged internal threads in electrical and electronic assemblies.
1D Nominal Length Ratio optimizes thread engagement depth to maximize joint integrity in standard-depth holes.
