Опубликовано 17 мая 2022, 14:00

Sean gives an overview to using threaded inserts for using machine screws in wood, metal, or even plastic 3D prints! For example, adding casters to your woodworking builds, or a 1/4-20 threaded insert in a 3D-printed phone holder. Here's how different kinds of threaded inserts perform, and Sean's recommendations for the types to use for various materials and mediums. How have you used threaded inserts in your projects?

T-Nuts for Wood - amzn.to/3Mqg4Hq
Screw-in Inserts for Wood - amzn.to/3sGi9qX
Heat Set Inserts - amzn.to/3PwdT7g
(NOTE: you want the type with angled grooves - I find straight up and down grooves tend to pull out.)
Press-fit Inserts - amzn.to/3wjN0M7
Screw-in Inserts for Metal - amzn.to/3lkZvRm
Helical Inserts for Metal - amzn.to/3ljCNsF
Rivet Nuts - amzn.to/3NjLQpt
