•Moderate corrosion resistance
HeliCoil Screw Thread Inserts - Materials & Platings
HeliCoil Inconel X-750 Inserts
•Used in areas exposed to high temperatures
•Typical uses: gas turbine engines, nuclear applications, well drilling
•Non-magnetic
•High corrosion resistance
HeliCoil Nitronic 60 Inserts
•Manufactured from a special corrosion resistant stainless steel material that is provides superb
galling resistance as well as wear resistance
•Compatible with stainless steel screws
•Ideal for use in vacuum environments
•Requires no additional coatings or platings, hence making them ideal for environments where
contamination is a concern
•Particle free
•Non-magnetic
•Moderate corrosion resistance
HeliCoil Phosphor Bronze Inserts
•Ideal for salt water applications
•Non-magnetic
•Excellent electrical conductivity
•High corrosion resistance
Dry Film Lubricant (Mollylube)
•Provides additional lubrication in high friction applications
•High temperature resistance (400ºF)
•Highly recommended with HeliCoil Screw-Lock Inserts
•Mildly corrosion resistant
•Colour : grey
HeliCoil Titanium Inserts
•Superior strength-to-weight ratio, ideal for applications where weight reduction is a significant
concern
•Excellent low temperature stability. Their low coefficient of thermal expansion and increased
material stability makes them suitable for use in satellites and applications where inserts must
withstand sub-zero to 600°F temperatures.
•Non-magnetic
•High corrosion resistance
Emhart Technologies HeliCoil Inserts are available in a wide choice of materials & platings to suit specific application needs.
Primer Free (Heli-Guard)
•Designed for use in aluminum and magnesium applications, HeliCoil Primer Free Inserts are
manufactured to to meet all relevant Military or Metric Aerospace standards and are coated with a
unique resin bonded fluoropolymer coating . This coating forms the barrier between the HeliCoil
Primer Free Insert and the parent material, greatly reducing & preventing galvanic corrosion
•Eliminates need for zinc primers
•Eliminates locking torque issues associated with primers
•Improves installation productivity
•Provides additional lubrication facilitating insert installation
•Colour : matte black
Cadmium Plating
•Provides high corrosion resistance
•Plating provides lubrication, preventing galling during insert installation
•Colour : iridescent yellow (HeliCoil Free Running Inserts), olive drab (HeliCoil Screw Lock Inserts)
Silver Plating
•Recommended to reduce galling of threads at high temperatures
•Plating suitable for use in temperatures up to 1200ºF
•Colour : silver white
