Support for weight reduction. "Basic Knowledge of Insert Nuts that Support Resin Products"

Screws may be small and inconspicuous, but they are commonly used in products close to us. They are important components that play a role in various fields, including automobiles, buildings, computers, robots, as well as in asteroid exploration and medical applications. Due to the wide variety of shapes and materials of screws depending on the components they fasten and their intended use, it can be confusing when it comes time to choose. On our company's website, in the "Useful Information about Screws" section, we explain the characteristics, types, and surface treatments of screws, providing foundational knowledge. We offer detailed information for field workers, designers, developers, and anyone interested in screws. For more details, please click the related link to visit our company's website.

Why was the SSOO nut adopted? We will explain it clearly through case studies. We are currently offering free materials that explain the benefits of adopting the SSOO nut. *This material was published in December 2023. The SSOO nut is a press-in insert nut that is gentle on resin parts and contributes to weight reduction. Even when tightened with high torque, the nut does not spin (co-rotate), preventing damage to the resin parts. Additionally, its high pull-out strength allows for a reduction in the number of nuts used compared to conventional methods. We introduce case studies and performance test results of the SSOO nut, along with the benefits of its adoption, accompanied by photos. We also include examples of reduced environmental impact by switching to iron SSOO nuts.

"How do you use an insert nut?" This is a common question we receive from customers. Insert nuts are used in areas where you want to securely fasten resin materials, reinforcing the fastening part. Unlike metal, where a "bolt + nut" can be tightened strongly, resin cannot be fastened in the same way. Essentially, resin is a soft material, so if you tighten it strongly with a "bolt + nut," the resin may crack, or the resin may buckle, causing the nut to spin or loosen. The solution to this is the "insert nut." It is embedded in the resin to reinforce the fastening part. Some insert nuts are designed to withstand high torque, capable of handling the high tightening torque required in conventional designs. Of course, since it is a "bolt + nut," it can be removed. We are currently offering a technical document summarizing the basic knowledge of insert nuts, titled "Supporting Weight Reduction: Basic Knowledge of Insert Nuts that Support Resin Products," for free. This document clearly explains the types, features, applications, and basic usage of insert nuts. If you are having trouble fastening resin products or want to learn more about insert nuts, please take a look. Feel free to contact us with any inquiries.

Are you having trouble with fastening resin products? You want to tighten them strongly, but the resin cracks. Conventional fastening designs cannot be used. You can bond with resin clips or adhesives, but it's a problem if you can't remove them... We have a solution for such "troubles": "screws for insert molding." "What are screws for insert molding?" We offer technical materials that answer such questions for free. Insert nuts are one type of screw for insert molding. By embedding them in the resin and reinforcing the fastening part, they enable fastening of resin using "bolt + nut." We clearly explain why insert nuts are necessary, how to use them, and the types of resins used, covering the "basics of insert nuts." Our company manufactures the "Octa Lobular Series," screws specifically designed for fastening resin products. With a special octagonal head shape, it ensures 1.8 times the torque resistance and pull-out strength of conventional products, allowing for high-torque fastening while protecting the resin. We solve the "troubles" of resin fastening. Please check the detailed materials of the series available for download. We also have a wide variety of colors for resin.
