A-L Series

A-L Series Threaded Insert

The A-L Series Insert features a knurled body and large diameter-low profile head making it ideal for use in punched or drilled holes. It offers the highest all around strength characteristics and has been designed to be used with Grade 5 or Metric 8.8/9.8 mating screws. The A-L Series is AVK's most versatile performer.

The A-L Series Insert can be installed using AVK's ARO brand pneumatic tools or AVK's SPP™ pneumatic/hydraulic tools. These tools can be located at any position on your assembly line. The A-L Series can be installed either before or after finish.

AVKBulletLogo.jpg (5683 bytes)EXCEPTIONAL TORQUE STRENGTH is achieved as the insert's knurled body expands FILLING THE HOLE.

AVKBulletLogo.jpg (5683 bytes) QUALITY INSTALLATIONS even invariable thickness materials are assured by AVK's spin/spin ARO pneumatic tools and our SPP pneumatic hydraulic tools.

AVKBulletLogo.jpg (5683 bytes) SUPERIOR THREAD STRENGTH is provided due to our internal rolled thread manufacturing process.

AVKBulletLogo.jpg (5683 bytes) THREADS GAUGE before and after installation due to the increased cross-sectional thickness of the threaded area. Thread dilation is prevented.

   AVKBulletLogo.jpg (5683 bytes) INVENTORY REDUCTION is possible because of the A-L Series' wide grip range capacity. It is 2.5 times greater than conventional rivet nuts.

AVKBulletLogo.jpg (5683 bytes) CORROSION RESISTANCE is provided by our standard zinc/yellow dichromate finish (96 hrs. salt spray to white corrosion). For exceptional corrosion protection we offer a tin/zinc alloy finish.

AVKBulletLogo.jpg (5683 bytes) AVAILABLE in steel from stock. Additional materials such as aluminum, brass and monel are available by special order. Contact AVK for details.

 WEDGE HEAD

The addition of wedges under the head provides even greater torque capability, especially in soft or thin materials, and is excellent for electrical grounding applications.
