Brass Heat-Set Inserts for Plastic Parts (Multiple Sizes)

Brass Heat-Set Threaded Inserts are the gold standard for assembling and securing plastic parts together. When installed correctly, the serrated edges grab hold of the plastic that was locally melted around it and make for a reliable and repeatable threaded joint to screw into again and again. Available in the three most common sizes for 3D-printed blaster builds
