Specialinsert
Specialinsert was established in 1974 by three sales agents who decided to exploit their experience in the fasteners industry to start up their own retail business. The company later developed and started its own production.
The Specialinsert product ranges span from threaded tubular inserts and bushings for plastic materials to inserts for wood, shear rivets and ¼ quick-turn fasteners. These fasteners are perfect for sleek, hidden assemblies. An undercut hole is not required for preparation. All that’s needed is a simple cylindrical wall hole. No specialty tools needed. In addition, assembly by pressure is quick and easy and does not require the use of any additional resins or adhesives.

These fasteners are commonly used for a number of applications including undermount sink installation, ventilated facades, cladding and furniture.
- Simple hole preparation allows for minimal tools.
- Quick installation cuts down on project time.
- No need for resins or adhesives.
- Radial force is produced only while the insert is under tensile load. The crowns spread the load into the parent material, allowing large loads to be carried.
- Thread stops before end of insert, avoiding extraction as a result of the use of an excessively long bolt.
