Applications on thetest stand ...

Threaded inserts from KerbKonus aremanufactured in large piece numbers.And human lives and safety can oftendepend upon just these tiny compo-nents, for instance in the case of air-bag retaining fasteners.

Because we bear this heavy responsibi-lity, our products are tested and moni-tored in line with the most stringentdirectives. In the case of particularlycritical applications, each and everypart is exhaustively tested on state-of-the-art test equipment before it is deli-vered to you.

The loading capacity of a thread de-pends in the main on the surface shellof the component which is exposed toshearing stress. By selecting just theright threaded insert for each applica-tion, maximum reliability can be achie-ved.

Using tried and tested, practicallyoriented test methods (see the tablebelow), we provide the designer with aset of reliable specifications to ensuresafe, reliable compliance with anyapplication requirement, howeverunusual. In most cases, this can evenbe achieved using standard threadedinserts.

The Ensat® self-tapping threadedinsert ...

Ensat is a self-tapping threaded insertwith external and internal thread, cutting slots or cutting bores. A continuous process of further deve-lopment has brought about a numberof major improvements to product cha-racteristics. These inserts are protectedby German and also foreign patents.

Ensat®-S 302 (with cutting slot) is recommended formost application cases. In certainmaterials, this Ensat demonstrates aminimal inward springing action, socreating a certain screw locking effect.If this effect is not required, we recom-mend using Ensat-SB 307/308.

Ensat®-SB 307/308 (with cutting bores) was developed formaterials with difficult cutting proper-ties. This insert has a thick wall and thecutting force is distributed over threecutting edges. The short version Ensat 307 is particu-larly suitable where minimal materialthicknesses are involved.

Thin-walled Ensat®-SD/SBDfor applications involving special spaceconditions (residual wall thicknesses),and also suitable for driving using athread tapping machine (same internaland external thread pitch). Slot version: Works Standard 303 Three-hole version: Works Standard347/348 (see page14).

Ensat®-SBS 337/338with three chip reservoirs. Used prima-rily wherever only a small amount ofchips may be permitted to occur duringthe tapping process (see page 13).

Ensat®-SBT with closed floor for additional sealingfrom below.Works Standard 357/358. Dimensions: see Works Standard337/338 (page 13).

The Ensat is used throughout thewhole of the metal and plastics pro-cessing industry.

Automotive industry, passengerand commercial vehiclesEngines, transmissions, wide range ofsupply parts such as wing mirrors,radiators, bumpers etc.

Plant and equipment constructionFlange joints, construction equipment, oil burners etc.

Household appliance and officemachinery productionVacuum cleaners, cameras, sun lamps,drills etc.

Electrical and laboratory suppliesCapacitors, heavy current, radio andtelecommunication systems, dentaltechnology equipment.

Military applicationsTanks, aircraft etc.

• The Ensat has a large effective shea-ring surface (E π B), so ensuring a higher degree of pull-out strength, i.e. an Ensat M4 is often sufficient instead of a cut M5 thread (see page 5).

• The Ensat is driven subsequently intothe finished workpiece. This means a higher casting machine output, no rejects due to incorrectly cast-in insert components, no moulding sand trapped in the thread.

• A pre-cast or pre-drilled retaining hole with normal tolerance require-ments is sufficient for driving in the Ensat. The thread is always precisely positioned.

• The work steps required with wire inserts – thread tapping, breaking off trunnions etc. as well as costly wearing tools (special thread drills, limit plug gauges etc.) are not nee-ded with the Ensat-system.

• The Ensat is insensitive to small areas of shrinkage. The Ensat- systemprevents damage caused by torn threads.

Fields of application Product features

Connections using Ensat threadedinserts permit substantially smalleroverall dimensions and thus pave theway for material-saving and weight-saving designs.

The illustration below shows twoscrew connections with equal pull-outstrength.

The adjacent table is used to deter-mine the recommended bore hole diameter depending on the material ofthe workpiece and the Ensattype/dimension.

Example:Light alloy workpiece (Rm=280 N/mm2),Internal thread M8, recommended bore hole diameter for Ensat®-S 302: 11,2 to 11,4 mmEnsat®-SB 307/308:11,2 to 11,5 mm

In case of processing problems (e.g.markedly increased screw-in torquelevels) there is generally no harm inselecting diameter data in the nexthighest column. In case of doubt, weadvise carrying out a test.

The retaining hole can be simply drilledor already provided for in the casting.

It is generally not necessary to coun-tersink the hole. However, we do re-commend that you take care not towarp the workpiece surface when screwing in the Ensat.

Material thickness:Length of the Ensat = smallest admissible material thickness M.

Depth of the blind hole:Minimum depth -T see Works Standardsheets, page 7 to 20.

Borehole diameter:Brittle, tough and hard materials callfor a larger borehole than soft or elas-tic materials. For guideline values, seethe table above.

Edge distance:The smallest still admissible edgedistance depends on the plannedstress level and the elasticity of thematerial into which the Ensat isscrewed.

The Ensat should be processed appr.0,1 - 0,2 mm recessed. After proces-sing, the Ensat can be immediatelysubjected to load. If the componentmaterial permits subsidence of theEnsat under load, the Ensat can onlyexecute an axial movement of 0,1 to0,2 mm. In other words, the preten-sion of the screw union is largely re-tained, loosening of the screw con-nection under dynamic load is impe-ded.

Retaining hole

These specifications are only recommendations and apply to ENSAT made of steel, hardened and plated.

Threaded insertself-tapping with chip reservoirs

Application

This special Ensat was developedprimarily for applications inwhich chips - created by the self-tapping process - exert a detri-mental effect and could causeserious damage or failure during

subsequent operation of theinstalled assembly - for examplein electronic equipment. The three cutting bores distribu-ted around the periphery are for-med as chip reservoirs.

The chips created during theinstallation process are stored inthese reservoirs and cannot dropinto sensitive equipment compo-nents.

Mubux®-MO –the coatedthreaded insert ...

Threaded insert Mubux-MO is made ofzinc-plated steel, with internal andexternal threads. It is coated on theoutside with precote 80.

Mubux-MO is used wherever a vibra-tion-free firm fit and extremely goodsealing properties are required in addi-tion to a high thread load capacityand wear resistance. It is suitable for awide range of different materials fromplastic to steel, for minimal wall thick-nesses and extremely brittle materials.

Application range

• Low installation costs • Simple installation without the need

for costly special tools• Exchange of threaded inserts

without tool damage

Product features

1. Drill the retaining hole.

2. Tap the thread with a standard thread tap.

3. Screw in the MO with simple tools; either manually, semi-automatically or fully automatic.

All Ensat driving tools and machinescan also be used for Mubux-MO.

Installing under pre-tension increasesthe breakaway torque.

Important: The parts must be free ofoil and grease prior to installation.

Installation

precote 80 coating

precote 80 is a microcapsule acrylic-based pre-coating. When screwed intoa nut thread, the capsules break openand the plastic flux begins to harden.This creates a firm, water-tight joint. Hand-tight after approx. 20 minutes,full loading capability after threehours. Other coating variants for screw lok-king and thread sealing are describedin more detail in our publication no. 60.

Ensat® is ideally suited for the fast repair oftorn and damaged threads. The samescrew size can be used again. This gives threads a markedly higherload capacity.

Gripp® is used for the repair of tornspark plug retaining threads in lightalloy cylinder heads. Gripp is installed in the same way asEnsat, but screwed in deeper until theupper rim comes to rest around 1.8mm under the surface of the cylinderhead. The sealing ring of the sparkplug is then able to work effectively.

Mini-packs for minor repair require-ments are available from tool retailersor from the manufacturer.

deeper than 0,2 mm below the workpiece surface, screw off the guide bush (3) at the front. Diameter. 0,1 to 0,2 mm smaller than the Ensat retaining hole.

For mounting the thin-walled Ensat (Page 14), modified guide bushes (available on request) should be used.

Tools 620 and 621 also fit within the coloured lines for other thread dimensions,if the guide bush and stud are exchanged.

Manual Ensat®Installation ...

Manual driving takes place using thedriving tools 620, 621 or 610 and a tap wrench:

1. Drill the hole: see page 6 for the correct diameter, countersink if necessary.

2. Screw the Ensat onto the driving tool with the cutting slot or cutting bore pointing downwards.

3. Drive in the Ensat until appr. 0,1 - 0,2 mm below the surface of the workpiece. Ensure that it does not tilt! When using tool 620 and 621, the rotatable shell must rest against the externally visible stop pins in sucha way that it is driven round clock-wise by the pins.

4. Back out the driver tool. During this process, tool 620 or 621 is automati-cally released from the Ensat. Tool 610: Hold the hex nut using a spanner until the lock breaks.

With Ensat®-S 302:Pre-cut the thread using the drill (max.centre cutter), set the threaded stud ofthe tool to the full Ensat length (tool 610 cannot be adjusted).

With Ensat®-SB 307 / 308: In steel up to medium strength, pre-cutting is not required.

Up to M12, we recommend the use ofMubux®-M for steel.

Machine installation ...

Machine installation takes place withproduction tool 620 or 621, integratedin a:

1. Thread tapping machine

2. Use a drill press fitted with a reversing tapping attachement or a tapping machine which is not pitchcontrolled. Important: Never exceed the maxi-mum admissible driving torque.

3. Special manual machine with bitstop and reversing system.

4. For large-scale series: Single or multiple installation machines with pneumatic or electricdrive, semi or fully automatic, CNC.

1. Precisely position the workpiece to ensure that the hole and machine spindle are in exact alignment (do not tilt). Set the machine to the precise driving depth (appr. 0,1 – 0,2 mm below the surface of the workpiece).

2. Turn the machine to clockwise rota-tion. At the start of the driving pro-cess, the rotatable external shell of the tool must be resting against theexternal visible stop pins in such a way that it is driven by the pins in the clockwise direction.

3. Feed the Ensat towards the tool (slot or cutting hole facingdownwards) and grip for theduration of 2 to 4 revolutions.

4. Actuate the operating lever of the machine until the Ensat cuts into the borehole. The remainder of the driving process takes place without actuating the feed.

5. Switch on the reversing function. Always avoid setting the tool down hard on the workpiece, as this can lead to breaking both the tool and the Ensat.

Excessively hard contact of the tool can damage the play-free fit of the Ensat and so reduce the pull-out strength. If necessary, the driving speed may have to be adapted in line with the necessary reversal time.

Machine driving process

Torque MThe maximum admissible torquedepends on:1. The axial load capacity of the tool

stud2. The pressure resistance capacity of

the Ensat® in the axial direction.

LubricationOnly in the case of materials with diffi-cult cutting properties.

For medium-hard light alloys:Cutting oil, spirit or petroleum.

For tough light alloys and castiron:Cutting oil with appr. 5 – 8% molyb-denum sulphide.
