AVK Blind Threaded Inserts

Blind threaded inserts by AVK Industrial are made in the USA. Using a patented technology called “Spinwall Technology”, AVK inserts have unique mechanical and installation properties which makes the body of the insert expand and fill the hole prior to backside flange formation.

There are two different types of blind threaded inserts: internally threaded inserts and externally threaded studs. Both types of inserts can be installed into a flat, tubular or other shaped material using a hand operated or pneumatic hand held tools. AVK blind threaded inserts are ideal for application into thin materials.

Because AVK inserts are the ultimate blind installed insert, they can be installed right on the assembly line without adjustment even if the parent material varies in thickness. Blind threaded inserts or rivets nuts can be installed after paint or other finishes are applied which eliminates the need for thread masking.
