most difficult fastening problems. This is supported by a mission statement that reflects an absolute

commitment to continuous evolution and technical innovation, in order to be ever more effective in providing its customers with modern and advanced solutions, as well as continuous assistance before, during, and after product delivery. specialinsert’s range reflects its philosophy to aim for niche markets. Its


product offer falls broadly into three areas – inserts for metal sheets, inserts for full parts, which includes wire thread inserts and inserts for plastics, as well as a range for composite materials. Recently the company introduced the Crown-nut – a revolutionary solution for the creation of threaded seats at the end of


round and square section tubes. This system solves any anchoring issues for machining processes on the tubes and guarantees superior hold. The product range offers solutions for round and square tubes and is available in a wide range of sizes. specialinsert explains that the Crown-nut fits on tubes with ample internal diameter tolerances thanks to the elasticity of the


crowns. The system allows the same item code to be used for various internal diameters (up to 2mm of difference) adapting to production warping and solving issues of possible internal diameter bottlenecks caused by tube welding. The Crown-nut have also been designed so that they do not damage or alter the shape of the receiving material, resulting in a total compliance with aesthetic criteria. The Crown-nut is easy to fit and cost effective since the press-in fit is fast and simple, enabling the elimination of traditional


and costly assembly processes using soldering and staking. “We already export directly to hundreds of industries and distributors in more than 40 countries worldwide and our export


department and technical office are always available to help the customer find the best solution to their fastening application.” www.specialinsert.it
