Ultimate Guide: Inch, Mil-Spec, and Metric Keensert® Equivalent Cross Reference Guide!

At MF Supply, we spend a lot of time sourcing hard to find, back ordered, expensive, or out-of-stock OEM hardware brands. We do this in order to save money and to reduce long lead times for our customers, without sacrificing quality. In fact, you can find hundreds of registered trademark-branded fasteners and components in the industrial marketplace. Much like brand-name pharmaceuticals such as Tylenol and Advil are available generically as acetaminophen and ibuprofen, some brand name fasteners are also available as “generics,” “crosses,” “alternatives” or “functional equivalents.”

In the world of fasteners, a functional equivalent fastener is a part that is the same as the brand-name product in form, fit and function, including material and plating specifications, but is made by an alternative manufacturer.

Is There an Available Functional Equivalent to My OEM Brand?

Below, find a sample list of brands that have generic alternatives:

3 STAR RIVETS USA, ABBATRON®, ALCOA, AMATOM®, APEX®, ARCONIC®, ATLAS®, AVDEL®, AVK®, B. F. GOODRICH, BOLLHOFF, BUCKEYE, CAPTIVE, CELUS®, CHERRY®, CONCORD, FASTENAL, GESIPA®, GRIPCO®, GLOBE ELECTRONICS, H. H. SMITH, HUCK, INDUX, INTERFAST, KEENSERT®, KEYSTONE, LOCTITE®, LYN-TRON, MACLEANESNA®, MARSON®, MCMASTER-CARR, MISUMI, MSC INDUSTRIAL, PEM®, PIC DESIGN®, POP®, POWERS®, QUICKSCREWS, RAF, RED HEAD®, ROTOR CLIP®, SHEREX, SIMPSON, SOUTHCO®, SPS TECHNOLOGIES, TINNERMAN®, U. S. ANCHOR. VIP, W. M. BERG, W. W. GRAINGER, WALDES TRUARC®.

Do Keenserts® Have Functional Equivalents?

One example of an OEM hardware brand is the trademarked names Keensert®and Keysert®. Although the name Keensert® is often used to describe a Key-locking insert — like Band-Aid® is used to describe an adhesive bandage, or like Kleenex® is used to describe facial tissues — Keensert® is the registered trademark of Huck Patents; its close cousin, the Keysert®, is a registered trademark of Alcoa Fastening Systems.

The same key-locking inserts manufactured under the Keensert® and Keysert® brand names are also available (or have been available in the past, prior to industry consolidation) from alternative manufacturers under brand names such as Acme, Camloc, Clarendon, Fairchild, Kaynar, Microdot, Rexnord and Tridair. You may also find Keenserts® under their Mil-Spec numbers, which include MS51830, MS51831, MS51832 and NA series. Keenserts® come in imperial, metric and mil-spec sizes and materials.

Below, checkout our three most popular key-locking insert cross reference charts, to see if there is a functional equivalent to the Keensert® you need.

MF Supply is an expert and industry leader when it comes to key-locking inserts, commonly known by the popular brand name Keensert®. We stock and source key-locking inserts in a wide variety of materials, platings and sizes, including Inch, Metric, Commercial and Mil-Spec options.

In today’s blog, we will showcase a comprehensive overview of Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts, covering their benefits, uses, styles, standards, sizes, and comparison with other key-locking inserts made from other materials — so you are all set before jumping off to procure them for your next project.

What are Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts?

Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts, often referred to in industry vernacular as Carbon Steel Keenserts®, are precision-engineered threaded inserts predominantly fabricated from high-grade carbon steel.

Featuring both internal and external threads, these inserts are adept at providing wear-resistant thread interfaces in substrates that are inherently susceptible to thread degradation or are insufficiently robust for the intended mechanical loads. The external threading of these inserts exhibits a larger diameter and pitch compared to the internal threads, ensuring a secure engagement with the parent material.

These components are specifically designed for thread reinforcement and repair applications across a broad spectrum of parent materials. Their key-locking mechanism involves the deployment of keys integrated into the insert body. Upon installation into a pre-tapped hole, these keys are driven outward into the parent material, thereby affording a secure mechanical lock that resists rotational and axial forces. Hence, this feature is pivotal in applications where vibrational loads or cyclic stresses are prevalent.

The versatility of Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts makes them beneficial for any sector requiring durable, reliable threaded connections, especially where materials are subject to wear, high stress, or require thread repair and reinforcement.

What Styles, Standards & Sizes Are Available?

Carbon Steel Keenserts®, or Key-Locking Inserts, have different styles in order to cater to a wide range of application requirements and material conditions. The distinct styles are designed to address specific challenges such as load capacity, space constraints, installation requirements, and the physical properties of the base material. Below is a list of all the styles available for these Key-Locking Inserts:

Thin Wall | RKKA | KNM: These are used when minimal space is available or in applications where less material needs to be removed. They offer a good balance between strength and size. Available off the shelf in Internal Thread 10-24 through 1/2-20 and Metric M5-M12. Often referred to by their original Fairchild part numbers: RKKA
Heavy Duty | RKK | KNHM: Designed for higher strength and durability, these are suitable for applications subject to high stress or where a stronger thread is required. Available off the shelf in Internal Thread 8-32 through 1-1/2, and Metric M4-M24. Often referred to by their original Fairchild part numbers: RKK
Extra Heavy Duty | KNHXH: These inserts are used in extremely demanding applications where very high pull-out and torque resistance is needed. Available off the shelf in Internal Thread 6-32 through 1-12. No standard Metric option available. Often referred to by their original Fairchild part numbers: KNHXH
Solid | KNJ: Unlike other types have both internal and external thread, solid inserts have only external thread. Once installed, they can be drilled and tapped as required. These solid inserts can be used to relocate misplaced holes, customize the internal threads, or plug existing holes. They are extremely durable but might require more installation space. Available off the shelf in External Thread 3/8-16 through 1-1/4 and Metric M8-M32. Often referred to by their original Fairchild part numbers: KNJ.

Commonly available in diameters from 6-32 through 1-1/2, Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts can be used in a wide range of applications from small electronics to heavy machinery. The thread pitch varies accordingly, with finer pitches for delicate applications and coarser pitches for heavy-duty applications.

Carbon Steel Key-locking inserts are generally offered as commercial parts, and don’t have a Mil-Spec equivalent. They come standard with a phosphate finish.

*Note – Carbon Steel Key-locking Inserts do not come with a Self-Locking option, which is a standard option with Stainless Steel Keenserts®.

The Carbon Steel Difference!

How do Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts stack up against other materials? Here’s the breakdown:

Stainless Steel: Stainless Steel Keenserts® are known for their corrosion resistance, especially in marine and chemical environments. However, Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts are generally stronger and more wear-resistant, which is beneficial in applications where the primary concern is strength rather than exposure to corrosive elements.
4140 Alloy Steel: This is a high-carbon alloy steel that provides excellent wear resistance and strength. While 440 Alloy Steel Keenserts® offer superior hardness, Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts typically excel in toughness and are more ductile, making them less likely to crack under high stress.
A286: A286 is an iron-nickel-chromium stainless steel alloy known for its high strength and corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures. Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts may not match the high-temperature performance but are significantly more cost-effective for applications where extreme temperatures are not a concern.
Nitronic 60: This material provides excellent galling and wear resistance. While it is superior in environments where these factors are critical, Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts offer a better balance of strength and cost-efficiency for general-purpose use.
Inconel: Known for its ability to withstand extreme temperatures and corrosion, Inconel is often used in high-temperature applications. Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts, on the other hand, are more widely used in applications where high temperature and corrosion are not as critical but where high strength and lower cost are important.

Hence, Carbon Steel Key-Locking Inserts offer an excellent balance of performance and value, making them a preferred choice for applications where the benefits of higher-cost, specialized materials are not required. They stand out for their strength, toughness, and cost-effectiveness, providing a reliable and affordable solution for thread reinforcement and repair.

In the realm of industrial manufacturing and engineering, Carriage Bolts often go unnoticed, yet they play a pivotal role in ensuring structural integrity and reliability. This versatile fastener, commonly known for its unique design featuring a rounded head and a square shank, is a cornerstone in a myriad of applications, such as construction and industrial projects. But just like many other popular fasteners, one size isn’t the right fit for all applications, and this is also the case with Carriage Bolts. So how do you make the right choice?

In today’s blog we will enlighten you about the key aspects of Carriage Bolts, covering their unique features, standards, materials, sizes, strengths/grades, uses and anything else you should know before setting off to buy them for your next big project!

What are Carriage Bolts?

A Carriage Bolt is a type of fastener that belongs to the bolt family. It is characterized by a domed or rounded head and coupled with a square section just beneath the head. This distinctive shape allows the bolt to sit smoothly against surfaces while the square part locks into the material, preventing the bolt from rotating or turning when the nut is being tightened.

Commonly used in industrial manufacturing and construction, they are ideal for metal-to-metal or metal-to-wood connections, providing a secure and aesthetically pleasing joint. Available in various materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel, and conforming to specific standards like ASME 18.5, SAE J429 and DIN 603 carriage bolts come in a range of sizes and grades to suit different mechanical and environmental requirements. Their versatility and reliability make them a staple in heavy-duty applications where robust fastening is essential.

Who Uses Carriage Bolts?

The robust nature of Carriage Bolts makes them an indispensable asset in many sectors, each valuing their unique combination of strength, security, and aesthetics.

Automotive and Heavy Machinery Sectors: The automotive and heavy machinery sectors rely on them for vehicle assembly and manufacturing robust equipment.
Marine and Coastal Applications: In marine and coastal applications, particularly, stainless steel Carriage Bolts are prized for their resistance to saltwater corrosion, vital in boat building and dock construction.
Railway Industry: Their use also extends to the railway industry for maintaining railway lines and infrastructure.
Aerospace Industry: Even in aerospace, though less common, Carriage Bolts find a place in non-critical applications, appreciated for their ease of installation and tamper-resistant design.

Whether you’re in construction, automotive manufacturing, aerospace or marine applications, Carriage Bolts play a pivotal role, underscoring their versatility and the trust placed in them by many professionals. Remember, when you’re choosing Carriage Bolts, you’re not just buying a component; you’re investing in the integrity and longevity of your entire project.

What Styles, Standards, Materials, Finishes & Sizes Are Available?

Carriage Bolts’ Styles

The world of Carriage Bolts is vast and varied, catering to a wide range of applications. Understanding this diversity is key to selecting the right bolt for your project. The traditional round head and square neck style is commonly used, but there are other types like Ribbed Neck or Knurled Neck bolts, which offer extra grip. Short Neck variants are useful in tight spaces, while Shaker Screen bolts are designed to withstand high-vibration environments. For specific fitting requirements, Under Sized Body bolts might be the solution, and Flat Head Carriage Bolts are ideal when a flush surface finish is needed. This variety demonstrates how specific designs cater to unique functional needs.

Quality Standards

Carriage Bolts are manufactured according to various quality standards, such as ASME 18.5, SAE J429, and DIN 603. These standards ensure consistency in dimensions, strength, and durability. They also play a crucial role in ensuring that carriage bolts meet the necessary safety and performance requirements across different applications. For instance, a bolt compliant with these standards would have reliable tensile strength and dimensional accuracy, making them suitable for a range of uses from construction to machinery assembly.

Materials

Different materials are used in the manufacturing of Carriage Bolts to suit various environmental and mechanical demands.

Low Carbon Steel Zinc: Commonly used for standard Carriage Bolts. The zinc coating provides a layer of corrosion resistance. Offers a good combination of tensile strength and ductility, making it suitable for light to medium load applications.
Grade 5 Steel: Contains a higher carbon content than low carbon steel, resulting in increased strength. Often used in automotive and construction applications where higher strength is needed. Provides a good balance between strength and flexibility, making it less likely to break under high stress.
Grade 8 Steel: Contains an even higher carbon content than Grade 5, offering superior strength and hardness. Commonly used in demanding applications like heavy machinery and military equipment. Ideal for applications where the bolt must withstand high stress or sudden impact without deforming.
Stainless Steel 18-8: Composed of approximately 18% chromium and 8% nickel, hence the name 18-8. Offers excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidization. Widely used in environments where exposure to water, chemicals, or saline is common.
Stainless Steel A2: Similar to 18-8 stainless steel but with slight variances in the alloy composition. Common in food processing equipment and outdoor furniture. Resistant to corrosion and staining, making it ideal for aesthetic applications as well.
Stainless Steel A4: Also known as marine grade stainless steel. Contains higher levels of nickel and added molybdenum for enhanced corrosion resistance. Ideal for use in highly corrosive environments such as marine, coastal, and tropical climates.

Finishes

The finish of a carriage bolt not only affects its appearance but also its functionality, especially in terms of corrosion resistance. Black Oxide and Black Zinc finishes offer a degree of corrosion resistance along with an aesthetically pleasing look. For environments with high moisture, Hot Dip Galvanized bolts are an excellent choice for their superior corrosion protection. Zinc-Plated and Zinc-Yellow finishes are also popular, offering a balance between corrosion resistance and affordability. Understanding these options is essential for selecting a bolt that not only fits the technical requirements but also withstands environmental conditions.

Sizes Available

The size of a carriage bolt is also another critical factor in ensuring its effectiveness in a given application. The range of sizes available is extensive, from 6-32 through 7/8-9 for inch sizes to M5-0.8 through M12-1.75 for metric DIN 603 sizes. This broad spectrum of sizes accommodates everything from large-scale industrial needs to smaller, custom projects. Selecting the appropriate size is vital for the bolt’s performance, as it affects the strength of the joint and the overall integrity of the project.

In the bustling world of manufacturing and engineering, where every component counts and the margin for error is slim, MF Supply recognizes the intricacy involved in sourcing materials that offer both superior performance and extended durability. This is where our friends, the Key-locking Inserts (AKA Keenserts®) become the stars of the show. Today, we’re turning the spotlight on an insert that’s been making waves in the industry: the Nitronic 60 Key-locking Insert!

If you’re on the quest for Key-locking Inserts that promise to elevate the integrity of your projects, you’re in the right place. Nitronic 60 key-locking Inserts are not just components; they’re your peace of mind molded into high-performance alloy.

Why Nitronic 60 Key-locking Inserts? The Vanguard of Resilience

Picture a material that laughs in the face of wear, shrugs off corrosion, and doesn’t flinch under high torque. That’s Nitronic 60 for you — an alloy steel that’s as tough as they come. Crafted from this robust alloy, Nitronic Key-locking Inserts boast unparalleled wear and galling resistance. For those of you constantly battling the wear and tear that comes with mechanical demands, these threaded inserts are your knights in shining armor. Think of them as the silent guardians against the everyday wear-and-tear that can compromise your work.

The Rust Doesn’t Sleep, But You Can

Corrosion is the arch-nemesis of metal, lurking and waiting to undermine your structures. But with Nitronic 60’s exceptional corrosion resistance, rest easy knowing that your components are as steadfast as your ambition. Whether it’s the salty bath of marine environments or the demanding conditions of chemical processing, they’ve got you covered.

Strength That Speaks Volumes

Nitronic 60 Key-locking Inserts don’t just resist wear; they embrace strength. High stress, high torque — bring it on! The formidable might of Nitronic 60 makes these Key-locking Inserts the backbone for applications that can’t afford to falter, from the aerospace zeniths to the depths of automotive innovation.

The Nitronic 60 Difference

We hear you asking, “But how do they stack up against other materials?” Here’s the deal:

Nitronic 60, as a material, is a high-performance stainless steel alloy known for its excellent strength and resistance to wear and galling. This versatile alloy provides exceptional resistance to high temperature oxidation, crevice corrosion and general corrosion, making it well suited to marine and chemical applications. Key-locking inserts made from Nitronic 60 are used in various applications where high strength and corrosion resistance are a must.

Carbon Steel Inserts: Compared to standard steel, Nitronic 60 offers superior resistance to corrosion and galling.
Stainless Steel Inserts: Among stainless steels, Nitronic 60 typically outperforms varieties such as 304 or 316 in wear resistance.
Inconel Inserts: Inconel excels in high-temperature applications but comes at a higher cost and greater machining difficulty than Nitronic 60.
4140 Alloy Inserts: 4140 Alloy provides greater tensile strength and enhanced performance at high temperatures, although it falls short in corrosion resistance and often necessitates protective coatings. Nitronic 60 is better suited for applications involving friction at moderate temperatures.
A286 Inserts: A286 excels in high-temperature applications, maintaining higher strength at elevated temperatures, though it’s tougher to machine and more expensive than Nitronic 60.

Welcome back to the second part of, “Heli-coils®” vs. “Keenserts®”: 3 differences you must know. As a refresher, both Helical Wire Inserts (AKA Heli-coils®) & Key-locking Inserts (AKA Keenserts®) are popular threaded inserts that are commonly used in precision manufacturing, transportation, and aerospace applications. Their uses overlap range from restoring/repairing stripped threaded holes, strengthening threaded holes in metals and other soft materials, providing high resistance to torque-out and pull-out, & to place threaded holes on materials too thin to accept them. The three main differences between Wire Inserts and Key-Locking Inserts lie in their strength, ease of installation & price. Today we will continue on from where we left of on our previous blog, and discuss about OEM brands, Mil-spec options, and how to order them!

Threaded Inserts’ Brands & Equivalents

A Helical Wire Insert, commonly known as “threaded wire insert,” is essentially a coil-wire made of stainless steel or other materials which, when installed, provide a new threaded hole surface. One of the most recognized brands for helical inserts is “Heli-Coil®,” but there are several others as well, including E-Z Lok, Bollhoff, Recoil, KATO, Perma-Coil, V-Coil and Time-Sert. Below is a list of some of the most well known brands for this category:

Heli-Coil®: Part of the Stanley Engineered Fastening brand, Heli-coil’s name is nearly synonymous with threaded wire inserts, and Heli-coil®is a registered trademark of Emhart® Teknologies, Inc.
Recoil®: Part of Howmet’s (previously Arconic, formerly Alcoa Fastening Systems) wire thread insert offering. Recoil offers helical wire inserts in bulk, replacement packets, kits and associated tools, taps and drill bits.
E-Z Lok®: Offering Wire Inserts under the E-Z Coil™ Helical Coil Insert brand, specializing in industrial and automotive .
KATO®: The Original Inventor & Manufacturer of the Bi-Directional Tangless Insert.

A Key-locking Threaded Insert, commonly known by the popular brand name “Keensert® and Keysert®,” is a solid bushing style threaded insert with unique external keys that get hammered into grooves through the threads—permanently locking the insert in place. Key-locking inserts are specifically designed for high-stress applications where strong, permanent threads are essential. Key-locking inserts offer exceptional resistance to vibration, torque-out and pull-out, making them suitable for critical components and assemblies that require a secure, immovable joint, or in scenarios where frequent assembly and disassembly might weaken the primary thread strength of the base material. While “Keensert®” is a trademarked name, tens of manufacturers and brands offer similar products in the solid threaded insert category including Acme, Camloc, Chrislynn, Clarendon, Fairchild, Loksert, Kaynar, Microdot and Tridair brands. Here is a list of the most popular brands:

Keensert®: is a registered trademark of Huck Patents, Inc. The trademark name is currently owned by the company that started it all, Howmet (formerly Arconic & Alcoa Fastening Systems).
Recoil®: The trademarked Keysert name belongs to Recoil, which is also part of the current Howmet family (formerly Arconic & Alcoa Fastening Systems).
Carr-Lane: Specializing in Tooling Components, Carr-Lane offers a large selection of Inch and Metric Key-locking inserts in steel and stainless steel.
Fairchild Fasteners®: Purchased by Arconic in 2002, Many original Fairchild part numbers are still produced and commonly used in the aerospace industry.
Acme – USA based manufacturers of inch, metric, Industrial Style and Mil-Spec key-locking inserts in a variety of materials and finishes.

Note: Various manufacturers and brands have their own designs, strengths, materials and applications for which they’re best suited. When choosing a threaded insert, it’s essential to consider factors like the material you’re working with, the stresses the insert will be under, and the expected lifecycle of the product. Industrial, automotive and aerospace industries each have their own requirements, which may include DFAR, First Article or other certifications. If you need assistance finding out what type of threaded insert is best suited for the project you’re working on, read part one of this blog, or reach out to us with your questions. MF Supply is an expert and leading supplier of Helical Wire Inserts and Key-locking Threaded Inserts—functional equivalents to top & expensive brands, such as Heli-Coil® & Keensert®.

Mil-Spec Options

Mil-spec Helical Wire Inserts (Heli-Coils®) are crafted to meet military specifications. They carry specific labels signifying their adherence to the rigorous standards established by the U.S. Department of Defense in order to guarantee that the inserts will fulfill the necessary requirements for military applications.

With that having been said, these threaded inserts often show up as free-running or self-locking inserts under their Mil-spec numbers, which can be crossed to commercial equivalents. Some common Mil-spec Helical Wire Inserts’ series include MS122076 through MS124831, MA1565, MA3276, MA3277, MA3278, MA3279, MA3280, MA3281, MA3329, MA3330, MA3331, , MS21208, MS21209, MS33537, NA0276, NAS1130

Mil-Spec key-locking threaded inserts (Keenserts®) adhere to distinct mil-spec (military specification) series. Options for these inserts include Miniature, Thinwall & Lightweight, Heavy Duty, Extra Heavy Duty, Keylocking Inserts in Stainless Steel, A286, and 4140 Alloy materials. Here are several prevalent mil-spec series associated with them: MS51830, MS51831, MS51832, NAS1394, NAS1395, NA0146, NA0147, NA0148, NA0149, NA0150, NA0151. The mil-spec parts will often have a commercial equivalent that is also known under the original Fairchild nomenclature, including the KN, KNC, KNH, KNL & KNCL Series.

Authentic Mil-spec parts will be available with documentation that confirm their compliance to the specification. Examples of certified paperwork might include a Certificate of Conformance, material traceability, DFAR statement, and chemical and/or physical tests reports.

“Heli-coils®” vs. “Keenserts®”: 3 differences you must know-Part 1 of 2 (Refreshed for 2023)

Posted: September 7, 2023 | Author: mfsupplyblog | Filed under: Brand equivalents, Helical, helical wire inserts, keensert, key-locking inserts, Wire Inserts | Tags: heli-coil, helical wire insert, keensert, key-locking insert, threaded bushing, threaded fastener, threaded insert | 1 Comment

Today we will re-introduce you to our blog, “Heli-coils®” vs. “Keenserts®”: 3 differences you must know-Part 1 of 2, published back on 2020. We will compare these two fastener products that are used to repair damaged threads & threaded holes, or to strengthen/reinforce a weaker parent material like aluminum. Both Helical Wire Inserts & Key-locking Inserts are commonly used in precision manufacturing, transportation and aerospace applications. Their versatility, however, ensures their presence in nearly every industry that utilizes threaded fasteners.

What are the main uses of Threaded inserts?

Both “Heli-coil®” or Helical wire inserts and “Keensert®” or Key-locking inserts fall under the “Threaded Insert” category of fasteners.

Threaded insert, also known as a threaded bushing, is an insert that has internal threads, and is fastened into an object to add or reinforce a threaded hole. Threaded inserts may be used to repair a stripped threaded hole, provide a durable threaded hole in a soft material, place a thread on a material too thin to accept it, mold or cast threads into a work piece thereby eliminating a machining operation, or simplify changeover from unified to metric threads or vice versa. Although Helical Wire inserts and Key-locking externally threaded inserts are used in similar ways, there are 3 main distinctions that we detail below. But first, let’s take a closer look at each of these fasteners:

What is a Helical Insert Wire Insert? (aka Heli-coil®)

Helical wire inserts are precision-formed continuous wire coils that provide permanent, wear-resistant threads which exceed the strength of the parent material. Often underestimated, the popular misconception is that Helical wire inserts are intended solely for thread repair, when, in fact, they have other significant uses. Not to be confused with other types of threaded inserts or rivnuts, Helical wire inserts resemble springs and are sometimes referred to as “Screw Thread Inserts (STI)” ,“Helicals” or by the popular brand “Heli-Coil®” which is a registered trademark of Emhart® Teknologies, Inc.

Three typical applications for using Helical wire inserts are:

to repair damaged threads in parts that would otherwise have to be scrapped
to strengthen threads against failures due to stripping, seizing or corrosion
to convert threads between inch and metric sizes

What is a Key-locking insert? (aka Keensert® or Keysert®)

The Key-locking threaded insert is a solid bushing style insert that is threaded on both the inside and the outside and has wedges or “keys” attached to the top of the insert. These externally threaded inserts are used to distribute loads and repair or strengthen threads against failures due to stripping, seizing or corrosion. Key-locking inserts are commonly used in high torque and high temperature situations, and in applications where fasteners may be repeatedly removed and reassembled. Key-locking inserts are often referred to as Keenserts® and Keyserts®, which are registered trademarks for the most popular brand names for this part. (Keensert® is a registered trademark of Huck Patents, Inc. & Keysert® is a registered trademark of Alcoa Fastening Systems).

Typical applications are transmission housings, electronic equipment and suspension units. Key-locking inserts are commonly found in aerospace assemblies.

How do they work?

Helical wire inserts work because the diamond shaped helically formed wire coil screws into a threaded hole to form a mating internal thread for a screw or stud.

Key-locking inserts are threaded into a pre-tapped hole, and then the keys are hammered into grooves through the threads, permanently locking the insert in place. Their “keys”, which are driven down into the tapped threads, provide a mechanical lock against rotation, especially when the mating stud or bolt will be removed frequently.

What materials, sizes and styles are available?

Key-locking Inserts/ Keenserts®

Key-locking inserts come in four main styles: Miniature, Thin Wall, Heavy Duty Wall (general purpose) and Extra Heavy Duty.

Miniature Key-locking inserts are used in electronic and aerospace applications where size and strength are critical. These inserts may be installed in sheet material as thin as 1/16″.
Thinwall inserts have smaller external threads than standard heavy-duty inserts and are ideal for tight spaces where less pull-out strength is acceptable.
Heavy Duty inserts have a thick, heavy-duty thread wall, suitable for most applications.
Extra-heavy duty inserts are used in oversized and overly worn holes.

Key-locking inserts can be internally self-locking or non-locking (the standard is non-locking and is sufficient for the most common applications).

Inserts with the internal self-locking feature are designed to securely lock a bolt when it is entered into the insert only a few turns. Even after repeated installations and removals of the bolt, the lock maintains sufficient locking torque to prevent the bolt from vibrating out.

Common Materials available include Carbon steel, Stainless Steel, Alloy 4140 and A286. Nitronic and other materials may be available with a lead time.

Internal Diameters available: American/Inch #2-56 to 1 ½-6 ” and Metric M2 to M24

Helical wire inserts / Heli-Coils®

Helical wire inserts come in 2 main styles: tanged and tangless (currently, MF Supply specializes in the tanged style).

The original and widely used tang style has a prong at one end to facilitate installation. The newer tangless style has no prongs to break off, retrieve, or lose. Tangless inserts are commonly used in electronic applications where loose tangs are might cause damage.

Helical wire inserts can be free-running or self-locking.

Free running is the most common style used for thread repair. The “free” diameter of the insert is larger than the installed diameter and this configuration generates balanced pressure distribution between the coils and threads.

Self-locking style inserts are recommended for applications that require constant torque, or are subject to stress or vibration. The locking style features a crimped turn that acts as a locking mechanism that grips the bolt or screw to prevent loosening from vibration, eliminating the need for lock wiring, lock-nuts, lockwashers, pellets/patches or other thread locking devices.

Common Materials available include Stainless Steel, Phosphorous Bronze, Inconel X-750 and Nitronic 60 and 90.

Internal Diameters available: American/Inch #2-56 to 1 ½-6” and and Metric M2 to M24. Standard inserts lengths measure from 1x to 3x the diameter. Note: larger sizes may be available by special order.

Why use a Key-locking insert vs. a Helical wire insert?

There are three main differences between Key-locking inserts and Helical wire inserts:

1) Strength: Key-locking inserts are stronger than Helical wire inserts

2) Ease of installation: Key-locking inserts are easier to install than Helical wire inserts

3) Price: Key-locking inserts are more expensive than Helical wire inserts!

So here is some direction on how to select the correct threaded insert for your application: In heavy wear, high vibration and high heat situations where saving space is not a concern and hole depth is limited, Key-locking inserts are the best bet.

When reducing costs and minimizing space are priorities, Helical wire inserts are the way to go. They are particularly useful for creating permanent strong threads in softer materials such as aluminum, titanium and magnesium alloys, and are best suited to lower heat and lower torque environments.

Stay tuned for our next blog, where we discuss, brands and mil-spec options, how to order and installation options!

When you’re in the heart of the manufacturing industry, precision is not just a luxury; it’s a necessity. Components like dowel pins may seem small and inconsequential, but in this realm of precision manufacturing, they are paramount to ensuring accurate alignment and fit. Precision dowel pins, in particular, play an indispensable role in guaranteeing accurate alignment and secure fastening in a broad spectrum of applications. But with various tolerances, standards, materials, and sizes available, how do you make the right choice? It is important to know and understand these factors in order to make informed decisions that will meet your expectations & manufacturing needs.

What are Precision Dowel Pins?

At their core, precision dowel pins are simple cylindrical rods. The term “precision” implies that these pins are manufactured to very tight tolerances in order to ensure accurate fit in assemblies. Tolerances refer to the acceptable variation in dimensions from the specified value. The tighter the tolerance, the less variation there is—meaning that their dimensions are incredibly accurate. This precision ensures that dowel pins fit snugly into corresponding holes in two components, ensuring their exact/accurate alignment.

Standards & Tolerances

Several standards are followed in the production of precision dowel pins. The prevalent standard specifications come from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the Deutsche Industrie Norm (DIN), the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), and the Military Standard (MS/MIL-SPEC) of the United States. At a minimum, these standards specify the pin shape, and the diameter and length tolerance. These standards might also specify the pin hardness and surface finish. OEM branded dowel pins are handled separately and are addressed later in this blog.

ISO Standard: ISO 2338A & ISO 2338B (for unhardened pins) and ISO 8734 (for hardened pins) are common standards for dowel pins. Under these standards, precision dowel pins can be manufactured to either “M6” or “M5” tolerance classes, with “M6” being the more common of the two.

For example, an “M6” tolerance for a 5 mm dowel pin might have a diameter tolerance of -0.014 to 0 mm. So, the pin could be anywhere from 4.986 mm to 5 mm in diameter.

DIN Standard: DIN 7 (for unhardened, solid dowel pins) and DIN 6325 & DIN 6325H (hardened, solid dowel pins). Similar to ISO standards, the typical tolerance for precision dowel pins under DIN standards is designated as “M6.” This is the standard fit for dowel pins and ensures a tight fit that might require light pressing or can sometimes be hand-driven depending on the exact material and hole conditions.

For example, for a 5 mm dowel pin under the DIN 7 or DIN 6325 standard, the typical diameter tolerance might have and upper limit of 5.000 mm & a lower limit of 4.986 mm.

ANSI Standard: ANSI standard for dowel pins is ASME/ANSI B18.8.2. This standard defines sizes and tolerances for standard dowel pins, with the “Standard Series” being the most common.

For example, for a 1/4 (.25) inch interference fit diameter pin, the diameter tolerance might be +0.0002 to 0.000 inch. So, the pin diameter could be anywhere from 0.2500 inches to 0.2502 inches in diameter.

MIL-SPEC Standard: MIL-SPEC standard for dowel pins, particularly those conforming to MS16555 and MIL-P-21143 have very specific tolerances to ensure reliability and consistency in critical military and aerospace applications.

The MS16555 specifies a straight headless pin with a radius on one end and a chamfer on the other. The material can be Carbon or Alloy Steel or CRES 410 or 416 Stainless Steel. Available diameters range from 1/16 (.0626-.0628) through 1 inch (1.0003-1.0001). Lengths range from 3/16 to 6 inches long. Standard diameter tolerances are +.0002 over the nominal size.
The M21143 specifies a a straight headless pin made of CRES 303 Stainless Steel. The Mil-P-21143/1 series has a tolerance up to +.0002 over the nominal size. The M21143/2 series has tolerance of .0002 Under its nominal size.

Material Choices

Different applications may require Precision dowel pins made from different materials. The most common materials in the market include:

Stainless Steel: Offers corrosion resistance and is suitable for applications exposed to moisture or corrosive substances.
Alloy Steel: Known for its strength and durability, it’s ideal for heavy-duty applications.
Brass: Often used when there’s a need to avoid sparking or in applications with lower strength requirements (less common).
Aluminum: Lightweight and resistant to corrosion, aluminum precision dowel pins are suitable for applications where weight is a concern (less common).

Sizes Available

The diameter of precision dowel pins usually varies from 1/32″ to more than 1″, and their lengths span from 3/16″ to multiple inches. Hence, precision dowel pins come in a wide range of sizes, but certain sizes are more commonly used across various manufacturing applications due to their adaptability and compatibility with standard components. Selecting the appropriate size for your specific application is essential for achieving a snug fit, best performance, cost-effectiveness, and durability.

OEM Branded Precision Dowel Pins

Precision Dowel Pins – OEM branded “Precision” dowel pins are manufactured by precision component brands such as Pic Design, WM Berg, Unicorp and others who have their own technical specifications and are not governed by DIN, ISO or ANSI / ASME standards. They are usually only offered in stainless steel through distributors of precision components.

What to Consider Before Buying

Tolerance: Precision dowel pins have tight tolerances. Ensure that the pins you buy meet the specific tolerances required for your application.
Environment: Consider the environment in which the pins will be used. If they’ll be exposed to corrosive substances or high temperatures, material choice becomes crucial.
Custom Needs: If your application requires non-standard sizes or materials, you might need custom-made precision dowel pins.
Quantity: Depending on the scale of your manufacturing, you may need precision dowel pins in bulk. Purchasing in larger quantities often results in cost savings!
Supplier Reputation: Always source your precision dowel pins from reputable suppliers known for their quality and consistency.
