A-L Series Inserts – Aluminum

A-L Series Aluminum Threaded Inserts are blind threaded fasteners that feature a knurled body and large diameter low profile head. A-L Series Aluminum Inserts are ideal for lightweight applications that feature drilled or punched holes. AVK Inserts are the perfect threaded fastener for installing into the front side of a panel, tube or structure when the backside is inaccessible. A-L Series Inserts also come in a Closed-End style, and a standard zinc/yellow trivalent finish.

When installed, the A-L Series Aluminum Insert’s knurled body expands 360 degrees and fills the hole. This feature provides exceptional torque strength and vibration resistance. The insert forms a backside flange onto the material and remains captive to a mating component which can be attached using standard hardware. AVK Inserts can be installed in thinner materials without using weld nuts, clinch nuts and threaded screws.

AVK Inserts are also available in kits.
