Brass Moulded In Inserts are precision-engineered threaded inserts designed to be integrated directly into plastic or composite components during the molding process. Conex Metals manufactures these inserts to provide a durable metal thread in materials that are otherwise too soft or thin to support conventional threads. As one of India’s leading manufacturers and suppliers, we produce high-quality Moulded In Inserts at our advanced facility in Jamnagar. Our inserts are known for their precision, reliability, and superior craftsmanship, meeting the highest industry standards.

Key Features of Brass Moulded In Inserts
Integrated Design:
Moulded In Inserts are placed into the mold prior to plastic injection, ensuring they become an integral part of the finished component. This integration guarantees excellent alignment and consistent thread quality without the need for post-molding machining.High-Quality Material:
Typically produced in brass (with options in stainless steel or other alloys), these inserts offer outstanding corrosion resistance and thermal stability, making them ideal for applications ranging from consumer electronics to automotive and industrial products.Enhanced Durability:
By embedding a metal insert directly into a molded part, the resulting threads are far more robust than those cut directly into plastic. This increases the longevity and load-bearing capacity of the component.Design Flexibility:
Their low-profile design allows for thinner-walled parts while still providing strong, reliable threaded connections. This makes them especially valuable in high-volume, cost-sensitive applications.
Technical Specifications (Example Values)
| Parameter | Specification (Typical) |

| Common Thread Sizes | Ranges from M3 to M12 (custom sizes available) |
| Thread Pitch | As per ISO Metric standards (e.g., M6 x 1.0) |
| Integration Method | Inserted during the injection molding process |
| Operating Temperature | Suitable for standard molded part environments (e.g., -40°C to +100°C)* |
*Note: Actual dimensions and thermal ratings depend on the specific application and design requirements.
Applications of Brass Moulded In Inserts
Consumer Electronics & Appliances:
Ideal for housings and panels where robust, reusable threads are needed.Automotive Components:
Used in parts that require high-strength fastening while keeping weight to a minimum.Industrial Equipment:
Provide a reliable threaded interface in molded plastic components that experience repeated assembly and disassembly.Medical & Recreational Products:
Ensure secure fastening in items where both hygiene and durability are essential.
Advantages of Brass Moulded In Inserts
Improved Thread Strength:
By replacing or reinforcing plastic threads with a metal insert, components gain significantly enhanced durability.Consistent Performance:
The integration process ensures that every insert meets tight dimensional tolerances for reliable performance.Cost Efficiency:
Eliminates additional secondary machining or insert installation steps, reducing overall production costs.Design Versatility:
Allows engineers to design thinner-walled components without compromising the strength of threaded connections.
Conex Metals’ Moulded In Inserts offer an ideal solution for applications requiring a permanent, robust threaded connection in molded components. They combine the benefits of metal strength with the efficiency of in-mold integration, ensuring your products maintain high quality and long-term reliability.
