Threaded Insert 1/4"-20
This hex-drive threaded insert accepts a 1/4"-20 internal thread and measures 1/2 in length. It is designed for repair or reinforcement of tapped holes in metal, plastic or wood. The component suits maintenance technicians, automotive specialists and general fabricators who need a durable female thread in softer base materials.
Hex Drive Installation
A hex drive socket allows the insert to be turned in with a standard Allen key or bit, giving positive engagement without specialised tooling. The external threads cut into the host material while the internal 1/4"-20 threads receive the mating bolt or stud. This method works in blind or through holes and can be performed on-site without heavy equipment.
Manufacturer Direct Supply
The part ships directly from Midwest Fastener, eliminating intermediate handling and reducing transit time for bulk orders. Orders of $75 or more qualify for free shipping, which benefits workshops and production lines that replenish stock in larger quantities.
