Heli-coil A1185-06CNPF207 6-32 Unc Threaded Insert

Product Description

The HELI-COIL A1185-06CNPF207 is a free-running wire thread insert designed to create strong, wear-resistant internal threads in materials that require reinforcement or thread repair. Built from 304 stainless steel with a primer-free finish, this insert measures 0.207 inches in overall length and accepts a 6-32 UNC thread. It features a tanged design for installation with a standard Heli-Coil tang break-off tool. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install this insert when restoring or reinforcing tapped holes in aluminum, magnesium, plastic, and other soft or damaged parent materials.

This insert is suited for light-duty fastening applications in residential equipment, commercial machinery, and industrial assemblies where a 6-32 UNC thread is specified. The 1-1/2D length-to-diameter ratio and 4-3/4 free coils make it a standard fit for general thread repair and OEM assembly applications requiring consistent thread engagement depth at this size.

Key Features

• 304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in demanding service environments
• Tanged design works with standard Heli-Coil installation and tang break-off tools
• Primer-free finish requires no additional prep before installation
• 0.207 inches overall length provides 1-1/2D thread engagement in the parent material
• 4-3/4 free coils for consistent thread form across the full insert length
• 6-32 UNC thread standard for compatibility with common inch-series fasteners

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style free-running threaded insert for parent materials tapped to accept 6-32 UNC Heli-Coil inserts.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a Heli-Coil tap, installation tool, and tang break-off tool specific to the 6-32 insert size. The parent material must be drilled and tapped to the correct Heli-Coil oversize specification before the insert is driven in. Power down or de-energize any equipment before performing thread repair on installed assemblies. Do not overtighten the driving tool, as this can distort the coil and reduce thread quality.
