Pencom threaded inserts TMZ-M3-5.20 or 001M3

Insert TMZ-M3-5.20 is a brass threaded insert that eliminates the problem of weak threads in plastic parts. Thanks to its unique "Barbed" geometry (sharp barbs), the insert permanently anchors in the material, offering strength parameters close to those of heat installation, with a much simpler installation process.

Technical specification:

Thread: M3 x 0.5 (metric)
Overall length: 5.20 mm
Type: Non-headed - flush installation with the surface
Material: High-grade brass
Installation method: Cold press-in (optionally heat or ultrasonic)

Key production benefits

Reduced assembly costs: No need to use expensive thermal insertion equipment or ultrasonic units in standard applications.

High mechanical resistance: Aggressive barbs ensure excellent pull-out resistance and high torque-out performance.
Part protection: A self-locating pilot helps with axial insertion, preventing damage to bosses and plastic cracking.
Precision: Manufacturing compliant with ISO 9001 and AS9100 standards ensures consistent repeatability for every piece.

Applications

TMZ inserts are an ideal solution for:

Electronics manufacturers (enclosures, control panels).
Automotive industry (interior trim components).
Medical and home appliance industries.
Rapid prototyping and 3D printing (FDM/SLA).
