Threading: Coil Inserts
Coil insert threading is available for UNC, UNF, and metric threads on both milled and turned parts. The diameter for insert-capable threads and hardware installation (with drawing) are only available on plastics and soft metals such as aluminum, brass, and copper. Note that Konlida will only install stocked, standard inserts & hardware when a technical drawing is uploaded.

** Threads in blue are available through advanced options and require a 2D drawing at time of upload. These advanced options could add additional time for our team of engineers to review your quote.
