It carries a 6-32 UNC thread profile and an overall length of 0.138 inches, giving a 1D length-to-diameter ratio suited to shallow-boss applications. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, it resists corrosion in both wet and mildly chemical environments. The tangless design eliminates the need for a tang break-off step during installation, reducing debris risk inside assemblies. Maximum locking torque is 6 inch-pounds, and minimum breakaway torque is 1.00 inch-pound, giving installers a defined torque window for controlled thread locking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is used wherever a stripped, soft, or thin-material threaded hole must be repaired or reinforced to accept a 6-32 UNC fastener. Typical applications include precision sheet-metal enclosures, electronic equipment housings, HVAC control panels, and light-gauge fabricated assemblies. Maintenance technicians, assembly workers, and field service personnel across electrical, HVAC, and light mechanical trades install this type of insert as a standard thread-repair or thread-reinforcement solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTangless design eliminates tang removal, reducing assembly debris and simplifying installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or mildly chemical environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-32 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall length of 0.138 inches with a 1D length-to-diameter ratio for shallow-boss installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum locking torque of 6 inch-pounds with minimum breakaway torque of 1.00 inch-pound for controlled screw retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-3\/4 free coils provide consistent locking engagement across the insert length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style thread-repair and thread-reinforcement insert for parent materials tapped to accept a 6-32 UNC helical coil insert with an outside diameter between 0.178 and 0.193 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a HELI-COIL or compatible tangless insert installation tool sized for 6-32 UNC inserts; confirm tool compatibility before beginning work. De-energize and lock out any assembly before inserting into electrical or control enclosures per NFPA 70E safe work practices. The parent hole must be pre-tapped with the correct STI (Screw Thread Insert) tap for 6-32 UNC to achieve proper outside diameter engagement. Do not exceed the maximum locking torque specification when driving the mating fastener, as overtorque can deform the coil and compromise thread integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-32 UNC\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: 0.138 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength-to-Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.178 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.193 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Free Coils\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3\/4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Locking Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inch-pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Breakaway Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.00 inch-pounds\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: 18-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTang Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tangless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.00026 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Inserts\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: A3585-06EN138\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELI-COIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51973355503922,"sku":"A3585-06EN138","price":21.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1d6a4f1c3379274048c457080c198e3a.jpg?v=1789972998","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/heli-coil-a3585-06en138-screw-locking-insert-6-32-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
