Enjoy the Benefits of Screw Inserts for Wood

When you are working with wood, having the right threaded inserts can make all the difference. Our specially-designed screw inserts for wood provide a range of advantages that ensure secure connections, ease of installation, and long-lasting durability.

Increased Strength

By creating a threaded metal-to-wood connection, these inserts significantly improve the strength of the joint compared to using screws directly into the wood. They reduce the risk of screws pulling out, ensuring a long-lasting and stable assembly.

Versatility

Threaded inserts can be used with various wood types, including hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and composite materials, making them suitable for a wide range of woodworking applications.

Easy Installation

Installing threaded inserts for wood is a straightforward process. With pre-drilled pilot holes, the inserts are screwed into place, offering convenience and saving valuable time during assembly.

Reusable Connections

One of the significant advantages of threaded inserts is their reusability. Unlike screws installed directly into wood, threaded inserts allow fasteners to be removed and reinstalled without damaging the wood, making them ideal for projects that require disassembly and reassembly.

Uniformity and Precision

Threaded inserts provide consistent and precise alignment, resulting in professional-looking woodworking projects with well-aligned joints and connections.

Load Distribution

By distributing the load over a larger area within the wood, threaded inserts reduce the stress concentration on individual wood fibers, minimizing the risk of splitting or cracking.

Corrosion Resistance

Threaded inserts made from materials like brass or stainless steel are resistant to corrosion, making them suitable for indoor and outdoor woodworking applications.
