Manufactured from Grade 304 stainless steel with a bright finish, it accepts a 4-40 UNC mating thread and measures 0.168 inches in overall length, corresponding to a 1-1\/2D length-to-diameter ratio. With a maximum locking torque of 48 oz-in and a minimum breakaway torque of 10 oz-in, it delivers reliable thread locking without adhesives or separate locking elements. The tangless design eliminates the need for tang removal after installation, reducing assembly steps and preventing loose tang debris inside assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for applications where standard threads in aluminum, cast iron, plastics, or soft metals require reinforcement and locking retention. Typical use cases include precision equipment, electronics enclosures, instrument panels, and light mechanical assemblies where fine 4-40 UNC threads are common. The stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance appropriate for both indoor industrial environments and moderate-exposure service conditions. Installation is performed by trained assembly technicians or field service personnel using compatible HELI-COIL tangless installation tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTangless design eliminates post-installation tang removal and prevents debris contamination\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 304 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance and strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-40 UNC thread size with 1-1\/2D length-to-diameter ratio for standard fine-thread applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum locking torque of 48 oz-in with minimum breakaway torque of 10 oz-in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutside diameter range of 0.144 to 0.159 inches for proper installation fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-3\/4 free coils and bright finish for consistent installation performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style screw-locking thread insert for parent material tapped to accept a 4-40 UNC helical coil insert; requires compatible HELI-COIL tangless installation and extraction tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified assembly technician or maintenance professional using the correct tangless insert installation tool specified for 4-40 UNC inserts. The parent material must be drilled and tapped to the proper HELI-COIL insert tap drill size before installation. Ensure the assembly is de-energized and secure before performing any thread repair or insert installation in powered equipment. Do not attempt installation with standard tang-style tooling, as tangless inserts require dedicated drivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-40\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: 0.168 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: 0.144 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.159 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Free Coils\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-3\/4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Locking Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48 oz-in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Breakaway Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 oz-in\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\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTang\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tangless\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.001 pounds\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: AT3585-04C168\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELI-COIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52044590776626,"sku":"AT3585-04C168","price":92.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8267178be7b89753d04d7f97f0506f7f.jpg?v=1790029957","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/heli-coil-at3585-04c168-screw-locking-insert-4-40-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
