Stainless Steel Helical Inserts
Also known as Heli-Coil inserts, these inserts have coils that expand once installed to securely anchor the insert. All have a prong for ease of installation. An installation tool grips the prong and reduces the coil diameter, enabling the insert to fit in tapped holes. Remove the prong to insert the screw. Installation requires a drill bit, a helical insert tap, an installation tool, and a prong break-off tool.

Male-Female Round Universal Thread Adapters with Through Hole
Connect male- and female-threaded parts of different thread types and sizes, while allowing air, liquids, wire, or other thin materials to pass through. Attach your parts to these adapters and use a hex key to secure the connection. Made of 304 stainless steel, all will hold up in wet environments. O-rings on each side create a tight seal, making them good for vacuum and compressed-air applications.

Low-Pressure Brass and Bronze Threaded Pipe Fittings
Use these fittings in low-pressure flow applications. They have good corrosion resistance.
Locknuts thread onto the male end of a fitting to provide extra holding power so the fitting won’t loosen from vibration. Locknuts that meet DIN 431 adhere to international standards for locknut dimensions.

Breakaway Hose Couplings for Chemicals and Petroleum
Minimize chemical and petroleum spills during accidental disconnects, such as a driver pulling away during loading. These couplings have a shut-off valve on each half to stop flow when they’re separated. Attach one end to your hose and the other to a supply pipe or a second hose.
Aluminum couplings are lightweight and have good corrosion resistance.
3/4 NPT and 3/4 BSPP couplings can be reconnected without replacement parts.
