    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_insert

    TIME-SERT insert. A threaded insert, also known as a threaded bushing, is a fastener element that is inserted into an object to add a threaded hole. [1] They 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 ...

  3. Self-tapping screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-tapping_screw

    A self-tapping screw is a screw that can tap its own hole as it is driven into the material. More narrowly, self-tapping is used only to describe a specific type of thread-cutting screw intended to produce a thread in relatively soft material or sheet materials, excluding wood screws. Other specific types of self-tapping screw include self ...

  4. Pilot hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilot_hole

    Pilot holes may be used when driving a screw, typically in wood, concrete, or plastic where the screw cuts its own threads. When a screw is driven into a material without a pilot hole, it can act as a wedge, generating outward pressure which can cause many materials to split. By drilling a small pilot hole into the material, into which a screw ...

  6. Tap and die - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_and_die

    A forming tap, aka a fluteless tap or roll tap, forcefully displaces the metal into a thread shape upon being turned into the hole, instead of cutting metal from the sides of the hole as cutting taps do. A forming tap has lobes periodically spaced around the tap which actually do the thread forming as the tap is advanced into a properly sized ...

  7. Screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw

    The tapped hole (or nut) into which the screw fits, has an internal diameter which is the size of the screw minus the pitch of the thread. Thus, an M6 screw, which has a pitch of 1 mm, is made by threading a 6 mm shank, and the nut or threaded hole is made by tapping threads into a hole of 5 mm diameter (6 mm − 1 mm).
