The tapered hole design accommodates varying hole dimensions, with a small end hole diameter of 0.488 inches and a large end hole diameter of 0.540 inches. At 0.625 inches overall length with a 0.563 inch insert diameter and a 0.493 inch pilot diameter, this insert installs cleanly into pre-drilled tapered holes. The brass construction offers corrosion resistance and reliable thread engagement in a range of plastic parts. Minimum wall thickness requirement is 0.293 inches. Sold in packages of 25.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for use in plastic components where a strong, reusable threaded connection is required. The double vane design helps anchor the insert against rotation and pullout once seated. Typical applications include threaded repairs, OEM assembly, and field modifications on plastic housings and enclosures. It is well suited for production environments and service work where plastic threads are prone to stripping or where metal threads are specified for structural reasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC thread size in brass construction for corrosion resistance and strong thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble vane design resists rotation and pullout in plastic base material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapered hole geometry with small end 0.488 inches and large end 0.540 inches accommodates pre-drilled tapered holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.625 inches overall length with 0.493 inches pilot diameter for accurate hole alignment during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.293 inches minimum wall thickness requirement ensures structural integrity of the host material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackage quantity of 25 supports production and service volume needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for installation into plastic base materials requiring 3\/8-16 UNC threaded inserts with a tapered hole entry and double vane retention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed using a press or arbor to seat the insert flush with or below the surface of the plastic host material. Power down any assembly or fixture before installing inserts into live components. Verify that the pre-drilled hole matches the required taper dimensions before pressing to avoid cracking the surrounding material. Follow the host material manufacturer recommendations for minimum wall thickness and hole preparation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.563 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePilot Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.493 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall End Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.488 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge End Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.540 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Wall Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.293 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor Material Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double Vane\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: E-Z LOK\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DV-316-TH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"E-Z LOK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67909887033650,"sku":"DV-316-TH","price":32.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/703c96a493af4ea6de6b2e4c92601d7f.jpg?v=1791193633","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/e-z-lok-dv-316-th-brass-double-vane-threaded-insert-3-8-16","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
