It installs into a pre-tapped STI (Screw Thread Insert) hole and locks into the parent material via tang engagement. The insert is coiled from 304 stainless steel wire for corrosion resistance and durability. At 0.5 inches overall length with a 2D length-to-diameter ratio and 8 free coils, this 1\/4-20 UNC tanged insert is suited for medium-duty threaded repair and original assembly work across a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is commonly used in maintenance, repair, and original equipment manufacturing where thread integrity is critical. Applications include aluminum housings, castings, plastic assemblies, and thin-wall components where a standard tapped thread lacks the pull-out strength required. It is appropriate for use in HVAC equipment chassis, electrical enclosures, plumbing valve bodies, and general mechanical assemblies. This package contains 500 inserts, making it well suited for production runs or high-volume service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-20 UNC thread size for broad compatibility with standard inch-series fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTanged design allows installation with standard HELI-COIL insertion tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5 inch overall length with 2D length-to-diameter ratio and 8 free coils\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e500-count package supports production or high-frequency service use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in any parent material prepared with the appropriate 1\/4-20 UNC STI tap.

The parent material must be drilled and tapped to the correct STI specification before the insert is installed. Use the proper HELI-COIL insertion tool to wind the insert into the tapped hole to the correct depth. After seating, break off the drive tang using the appropriate tang break-off tool to complete the installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Insert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength to Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2D\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Free Coils\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTang Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tanged\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 inserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23291804\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: HELI-COIL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1185-4CN500S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELI-COIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52013571113266,"sku":"1185-4CN500S","price":494.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/36c1ba94887e0c5aa6117b4505aa3904.jpg?v=1790006279","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/heli-coil-1185-4cn500s-1-4-20-unc-threaded-insert-500-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
