Review on Hilitchi 100 Pcs Female Thread Brass Knurled Threaded Insert Embedment Nuts, for 3D Prints, Projects, and More (M2x6mmx3.5mm) by Patrick Stowers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Brass threaded inserts M5, what else is there to say?

Pressed into plastic parts, they serve their purpose. I'd like to know what hole size they are for, although 6-6.5mm seemed fine to me for M5 inserts. I 3D pressed them, CF-PC/ABS thread. I couldn't get the stakes out even if I wanted to. I just set the iron to 350C, put the insert on the tip of the iron (standard tip), let it heat up for half a minute, and they're squished in like butter. You can buy special insertion tools but to be honest I've never had a problem with the standard iron tip.

Pros
  • Nuts
Cons
  • Not bad
