A versatile, economical insert, the SHARP-SERT can be used with most soft materials including wood, particle board and plastic. It can be pressed-in as well as installed thermally or ultrasonically. If you're don't have any of these tools, a hammer will work too!
The specially designed curved hooks lock firmly into the base material, providing exceptional resistance to pull-out and torque. Threads stay clean and chip-free during installation.
For the simplest installation method, all you need is a drill and a hammer:
-
Using a drill with a 15/64" (or "A" size) bit, drill a hole that is deep enough for the longest screw you will be using in this application. You may need to drill deeper than the depth of the insert.
-
Place the insert in the hole.
-
Using a hammer, gently (or not so gently) tap the insert until it's flush with the surface of your panel.
HINT: To avoid any damage to the nice shiny surface of the insert, place a small block of wood over the insert when tapping it into place.
AVAILABLE IN PACKAGES OF 10 OR 1000!
