Product Description
The HELI-COIL 1185-6EN375 is a high-strength free-running tanged wire thread insert designed to establish durable, wear-resistant internal threads in soft metal base materials. Precision-wound from 304 stainless steel, this 3/8-24 UNF thread insert features a 1.0D nominal length with a plain finish, offering high-shear thread reinforcement to protect receiving tapped holes against thread stripping, galling, and thermal wear in compact mechanical assemblies.
Free-Running Design enables smooth, unhindered fastener installation while distributing tensile loads evenly across all engaged threads.
304 Stainless Steel provides outstanding corrosion resistance, mechanical durability, and temperature stability in demanding assembly environments.
Precision Tanged Structure features a built-in driving prong that facilitates fast, repeatable installation using standard manual or power tooling.
Compact 1.0D Length delivers reliable thread reinforcement in shallow tapped holes where space and weight constraints are critical.
Load-Balancing Diamond Wire Construction compensates for lead and angle discrepancies to optimize joint strength and load distribution.
