These small inserts are designed to install into a wide range of surfaces including granite, marble, quartz, solid surface, HPL, glass, fiber cement, and other compact materials. <\/p>\n The solid surface insert\u2019s small size also lends itself to be installed into extremely thin surfaces while also being extremely strong. In addition, the Keep-Nut\u2122 press-in self-anchoring insert is manufactured in stainless steel and it\u2019s made of a threaded bush with a set of elastic crowns and a plastic ring for holding the complete set of parts together.<\/p>\n \n Advantages: \n<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n\n \n- Simple hole preparation<\/li>\n
- Quick installation<\/li>\n
- No need for resins or adhesives<\/li>\n
- 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<\/li>\n
- Thread stops before end of insert, avoiding extraction as a result of the use of an excessively long bolt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
