The Recoil 03585 is a tanged, free-running wire thread insert for strengthening or repairing #8-32 UNC internal threads. The 2.5D insert is manufactured from diamond-profile 304 stainless-steel wire to distribute load across the tapped hole and improve thread wear resistance.
Confirm the #8-32 UNC thread size, 2.5D length, installation-tool compatibility, and required tap and drill dimensions for the parent material. This is a free-running insert, not a screw-locking insert.
What does 2.5D mean?The nominal insert length is 2.5 times the thread diameter; for this part, the listed insert length is 0.410 in.
Is this a locking insert?No. It is a non-locking, free-running insert.
Recoil helically wound wire thread inserts can be used to strengthen threads, giving applications a longer life. Each insert sharing the load over the entire bolt and hole, improving holding or pull out resistance. With a Recoil insert installed, a more even distribution of load and stress can be achieved. Recoil inserts are generally made of type 304(18-8) stainless steel wire rolled into a diamond shape cross-section. Recoil inserts can be supplied in other materials such as Inconel, Nimonic 90, Nitronic 60, Phosphor Bronze and type 316 Stainless Steel. Standard inserts are free-running, but screw-locking inserts are also available. Both free-running and screw-locking inserts are available on plastic strips for automated tooling systems.
