E-z Lok 901032-13 Flanged Hex Drive Insert 10-32 50 Pack

Product Description

The E-Z LOK 901032-13 is a flanged hex drive threaded insert designed to install a durable 10-32 internal thread into soft materials such as plastic, wood, or composite substrates. The flanged collar seats flush against the surface during installation, preventing over-drive and providing a positive stop. At 0.512 inches in overall length with a minimum grip of 0.5 inches, this insert is sized for thin-panel and light structural applications. The zinc alloy construction resists corrosion in typical indoor environments and delivers consistent thread engagement for machine screws. Installation requires an M5 hex drive bit and a 9/32-inch drill for the pilot hole.

This insert is suited for production assembly, maintenance repair operations, and light fabrication work where a reliable machine-thread anchor is needed in a non-metallic or soft-metal base material. Typical applications include electronic enclosures, furniture hardware, hobby and prototype builds, and fixture assemblies where repeated fastener removal and reinstallation would otherwise strip the base material. Each package contains 50 inserts, making it practical for both bench-level repairs and small-batch production runs.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using an M5 hex drive bit in a hand driver or low-speed drill press. Drill the pilot hole to 9/32 inches before insert installation to ensure proper thread engagement. Power down any associated equipment and secure the workpiece before driving the insert. Do not exceed the minimum grip depth of 0.5 inches to avoid cracking or delaminating the base material.
