uxcell M3 x 4mm L x 5mm OD Brass Knurled Insert Nuts (60 Pcs) | Heat Set Embedment Nuts for 3D Printing

• SIZE — Thread Dia: M3; Pitch: 0.5mm; Overall Size: 5mm x 4mm / 0.20" x 0.16"(OD*L)
• MATERIAL — Made of brass material, high hardness and durable. Provides good mechanical properties with increased corrosion and heat resistance
• FEATURE — The embedding nut has a guide so there is no need for a counterbore or countersink. Smooth surface, firm and uniform, easy to install.
• ADVANTAGE — Due to the embossing process on the outer diameter of the insert, it forms certain friction and bites force with the brass insert after forming, which can be fixed on the inside so that it will not fall off easily. Has a certain torsion and tension.
• APPLICATION — Can be installed by ultrasonic or heat into the plastic matrix, or formed during the injection, widely used in 3D printing injection molding to achieve tight fixation.

• Prepare the Plastic Component — Ensure your 3D printed part or plastic component has the appropriate hole designed for the M3 x 4mm x 5mm OD insert nut. The hole should accommodate the knurled exterior for optimal grip.
• Insert the Nut — Place the knurled insert nut into the pre-drilled hole. No countersinking is required due to the nut's design. Align the nut so it sits flush with the surface.
• Apply Heat or Ultrasonic Embedding — Using a soldering iron with a suitable tip or an ultrasonic welder, carefully apply heat or ultrasonic energy to the nut. This will melt the surrounding plastic, allowing the knurled exterior to embed and form a strong mechanical bond as it cools.
• Allow to Cool and Secure — Once embedded, allow the plastic to cool completely. The nut will be securely fixed in place, providing a durable, threaded insert with good torsion and tension for your project.
