Die-cast from zinc alloy, E-Z Lok’s E-Z Hex inserts provide sturdy machine threads for softwood. The hexagonal drive design ensures efficient torque transfer, eliminating slippage and providing a secure connection for any application where assembly or disassembly could lead to thread erosion or stripping. Furthermore, the self-tapping feature creates threads directly in softwood, removing the need for pre-drilling. The inserts for wood can be installed quickly with an Allen wrench or optional drive tool.
E-Z Hex inserts come in multiple length options and feature broad external threads for holding power in materials like pine, composition board, MDF and plywood. The internal thread sizes range from #8 to 3/8-16, plus M6 and M8. E-Z Lok also offers standard hex drive threaded insert installation kits with or without the drive tool and drill bits and specific size inserts in both flanged and flush designs.
