50 6-32 Brass Threaded Inserts for Wood

High-quality internal threads are wear resistant. Unified and American Standard, class 2B threads. External Diameter 0.219. Length 0.344 Recommended hole diameter 0.172 For most wood applications including medium-hard and hardwood, the threaded insert should be installed slot down. The cutting action at the slotted section allows easier installation and avoids radial stresses which may otherwise tend to split the wood. In soft wood, the threaded insert should be installed slot up. The threaded insert is then thread forming, similar to a wood screw. The absence of cutting provides a firm anchor in the relatively soft wood.
