Formed from 18-8 stainless steel, it provides corrosion resistance in demanding environments. The insert is a tanged style with an 8-32 UNC thread size and an overall length of 0.246 inches, representing a 1-1\/2D length-to-diameter ratio. A locking feature integral to the coil holds the mating screw against loosening under shock and vibration loads. Licensed machinists, maintenance technicians, and precision assembly professionals install these inserts using a designated installation tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for applications where standard threaded holes require reinforcement or repair, particularly in assemblies subject to repeated fastener removal or vibration. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for use in environments with exposure to moisture, mild chemicals, or elevated temperatures. It is commonly installed in aluminum, magnesium, titanium, cast iron, and other parent materials across aerospace, industrial machinery, and general manufacturing applications. Each package contains one insert, and a minimum order quantity of 5 applies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion and heat resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTanged design for use with standard Heli-Coil installation tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-32 UNC thread size with 1-1\/2D length-to-diameter ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall length of 0.246 inches fits shallow-bore installation requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum locking torque of 9 inch-pounds keeps fasteners secure under vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum break-away torque of 1.50 inch-pounds allows controlled removal when needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6 free coils for consistent thread engagement across the insert body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style wire thread insert for tapped holes requiring 8-32 UNC thread repair or reinforcement in metallic parent materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a compatible Heli-Coil installation tool matched to the 8-32 UNC thread size. The parent material must be drilled and tapped to the correct insert-tap specification before installation. After the insert is driven to the proper depth, the installation tang is broken off at the notch using a tang break-off tool. Always verify the installed thread with a go\/no-go gauge before placing the assembly into service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-32 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: 0.246 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength to Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2D\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.205 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.220 inches\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: Tanged\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Free Coils\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Locking Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 inch-pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Break-Away Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.50 inch-pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Inserts per Package\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: A3585-2EN246\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELI-COIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52000434880818,"sku":"A3585-2EN246","price":22.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cb6539946e720e4d42774f791a4df7c2.jpg?v=1789996417","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/heli-coil-a3585-2en246-screw-locking-insert-8-32-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
