Overview
DIN 8140 is a standard that describes threaded inserts (also known as threaded inserts with a clamping element). A threaded insert is a connection element used to connect threaded products that have different thread diameters. It contains an internal thread and a clamping element that allows for a secure connection without the need to tighten the nut. Threaded tabs can be made of various materials, such as steel, stainless steel, or brass. They are used in various industries, including mechanical engineering, automotive, and construction. The use of threaded clamping inserts ensures a reliable connection and reduces the risk of its disconnection during operation.
DIN 8140 fastening group
DIN 8140 inserts are included in the stainless steel fastener group.
Materials for the manufacture of DIN 8140 inserts
DIN 8140 inserts are made exclusively of A2 stainless steel. The A2 steel grade allows the fasteners to be used at high temperature extremes and in aggressive and humid environments.
Application range of DIN 8140 threaded bushings
Threaded inserts DIN 8140 are used to connect threaded parts with different thread diameters in mechanical engineering, automotive and other industrial sectors. They can be made of various materials, such as steel, stainless steel or brass, and feature an internal thread and a clamping element that allows for a secure connection without the need to tighten the nut. The main advantages of threaded inserts are that they provide a secure connection without the need to tighten the nut, which reduces the risk of loosening it during operation. Threaded sleeves also allow you to connect different types of threaded connections and allow you to use the same threaded sleeve with several different thread diameters. Also, threaded inserts can be used to connect threaded parts in conditions with high vibration and shock loads, which ensures reliable fixation of the connection in operation.
