SpecialInsert F1 T38 Female Fastener, 10-24

Description

The F1 female threaded fastener creates a 10-24 anchor point on a rectangular 38 x 19 mm bonding base. This SpecialInsert component is designed for adhesive attachment, allowing fabricators to add an internal thread without drilling through the finished panel or welding a nut to the assembly.

F1 Female Threaded Fastener: Fitment and Assembly Role

The F1 design supports blind-hole and through-hole assembly layouts. Its female thread accepts a matching bolt or threaded component, while the plate gives the selected structural adhesive a defined bonding area. The fastener can be used on metal, plastic, and composite substrates after the adhesive system, surface preparation, and joint loading have been qualified. It is commonly considered for signs, enclosures, panels, marine interiors, transportation assemblies, and OEM fixtures.

Select the bonding adhesive based on the actual substrate pair, service environment, cure schedule, and load direction. Clean and prepare both the base and receiving surface according to the adhesive manufacturer’s instructions. Hold the part in position during cure so the thread remains aligned. The bonded joint should be tested with the production materials before the fastener is approved for repeated use.

Plan the installation around bolt access, thread engagement, plate clearance, and adhesive squeeze-out. Use a fixture when alignment affects the mating component. After cure, inspect the joint before applying service load. A bonded fastener is part of a complete attachment system, so the adhesive and substrate remain as important as the metal component.
