A) WIRE INSERTS - WF wire inserts have been the preferred
solution for strengthening threads in low-strength metal
materials for over thirty years due to high-wearing tensile
strength, low thread friction, tight tolerances and a high
surface quality as well as corrosion and heat resistance. These
inserts are formed by coiling a rhomboidically profiled wire
into a resilient spiral resulting in an optimal fitting structural
shape. Accompanied by high-quality and easy to use helical
threading taps and installation tools that WF provides, screw
thread inserts are the ultimate prevention and cure where
thread reliability is a critical factor.

WF inserts are available in Free-running form or screw-lock
type which provides an internal locking feature useful in
conditions of vibrations and impacts.

Inserts are manufactured for every thread form including
UNC, UNF, BSW, BSF, BSP, BA and ISO Metric threads.

Helicoilly ...
... wound screw thread inserts are manufactured from
class 304 (18-8), 316 stainless steel as well as Inconel
materials.

B) THREAD REPAIR KITS - Boasting the lowest prices in the
world WF sets the benchmark with its thread repair kits covering majority of commonly used sizes.

These kits include stainless steel inserts, a Special oversized tap and a one of a kind easy installation tool that can assure you of foolproof fitment.

C) HELI-LOCK NUTS - Available in all sizes and series and various nut-body material like En Stainless Steel, Brass, Inconel etc., WF heli-lock nuts are the only long term solution to loosening fasteners in situations of aggressive vibrations and impacts.

These lock nuts are fitted with screw type wire inserts which provide an elastic resilient lock by gripping the threads of the installed screw.

Their magical torque retaining abilities in the event of infinite fitments and removals have made them a favourite with industries like - automobiles, railways, material handling and conveying equipments.
