What is Hot Nut Insertion?

​

Hot nut insertion is the process of inserting a threaded nut into a plastic part. There are three main technologies for hot nut insertion applications: inductive heating, conductive heating, and ultrasonic insertion. Inductive hot nut insertion involves heating the nut in a magnetic field produced by an inductive coil. Conductive heating is the process of either pre-heating the plastic prior to insertion, or partially inserting the nut and heating both the plastic and the nut directly via a heated probe. Ultrasonic insertion uses a sonotrode that contacts the insert directly to generate heat through friction. To learn more about our hot nut insertion process, please contact us below.
