For Castings and Soft Metals HRB 70 / HB 125 or less
PEM® 300 Series Stainless Steel CASTSERT™ inserts provide strong, durable metal threads in soft
metals and die-cast alloys. The simple press-in and rapid installation process for these inserts uses a
flat punch and anvil to install all sizes and lengths, approximately 80% faster than other methods.
Designed for flush installation with flat punch and anvil into blind holes or thru-holes
Process cost savings vs. coil inserts or thread tapping
Installed into drilled holes or as-cast holes with low draft angle
Pilot for rapid seating and self-alignment
Symmetric for auto-feed capability
Fastener drawings and models are available at www.pemnet.com
1 Draft hole performance will vary greatly depending on length of engagement of the knurl over the
installed length. For best results, recommend use of 3 degree or less total draft and design hole as close
to H as possible at depth R to optimize length and depth of knurl engagement.
