Lightweight materials are essential for aerospace and other high performance applications. A tapped thread in these materials can be stripped or damaged on a single use, turning a potentially expensive component to scrap. Drilling and tapping a screw thread insert (STI) thread allows a KATO CoilThread insert to be installed, which will create a permanent, wear-resistant thread that exceeds the strength of most parent materials.
The larger diameter of the tapped thread increases the strength of the parent material. A simple design table makes it easy to select the correct insert length for the application.
