Threaded Inserts

Technology overview

Threaded inserts are essential components in 3D printing, enabling the creation of secure, reliable connections within printed objects. These inserts provide threaded receptacles that enhance the versatility and utility of 3D printed parts.

Threaded inserts are used to create threaded holes within 3D printed parts, allowing screws, bolts, or other fasteners to be securely attached.
