Atlas Blind Threaded Inserts
Atlas brand Blind threaded inserts are designed to provide strong threads in thin panel sections. They are called “blind” because they can be installed from one side of the panel. AEH DrawingAccess to both sides is not required. That’s why these fasteners are ideally suited for tubing, extrusion, and other similar types of applications.
There are three types: SpinTite®, MaxTite®, and Plus+Tite® fasteners. The SpinTite types are used for most applications where strong threads are required for blind applications. In addition to high thread strength and torque-out, these fasteners have minimal inventory requirements since each size can accommodate many grip ranges.
The heavy duty thick walled MaxTite types are designed for the most demanding applications.
The blind Plus+Tite inserts feature a slotted body that folds into four petals upon installation, gripping the backside of the parent material. These inserts can be installed into single, variable, or multiple thickness materials and are available in pre-bulbed or straight barrel versions.
