Titanium Key Lock Thread Inserts – M4-M24 – Medical – CNC – GR5

Description

Key Features & Benefits:

• Aerospace‑Grade GR5 Titanium – Made from Ti‑6Al‑4V alloy, offering a tensile strength exceeding 900 MPa with a density approximately 60% that of stainless steel. This provides exceptional strength‑to‑weight performance – critical for medical implants and portable devices where weight reduction and structural integrity are essential.

• Key Lock Design for Secure Fixation – The key lock (mechanical locking) feature ensures positive mechanical interlock with the parent material. One or more keys or splines on the insert’s outer diameter lock into the pre‑drilled hole, preventing rotation and pull‑out under vibration, torque, or dynamic loads – eliminating the need for adhesives or secondary locking methods.

• Broad Size Range – M4 to M24 – Available in diameters from M4 to M24, accommodating a wide range of thread repair, reinforcement, and new installation applications – from miniature M4 inserts for delicate instrumentation to heavy‑duty M24 inserts for structural assemblies.

• CNC Machined for Ultra‑Precision – Manufactured using advanced CNC turning and milling processes to ensure tight tolerances on thread geometry, outer diameter, and key dimensions. The excellent surface finish ensures consistent fitment and reliable performance in critical medical applications.

• Biocompatible – Suitable for Medical Applications – Titanium is widely recognised for its excellent biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and non‑toxicity. It is well‑tolerated by human tissue, making it suitable for medical implants, surgical instruments, and long‑term implantable devices without adverse reactions.

• Non‑Magnetic for Sensitive Applications – Titanium is inherently non‑magnetic, making these inserts ideal for applications near sensitive electronic components, MRI equipment, and precision measurement devices where magnetic interference must be eliminated.

• Corrosion‑Resistant for Sterilisation Environments – Titanium’s natural passive oxide layer, combined with optional surface treatments, provides outstanding resistance to corrosion from bodily fluids, saline, and aggressive sterilisation processes (autoclaving, ethylene oxide, gamma radiation) – ensuring long‑term reliability and device longevity.

• Lightweight for Performance – At approximately 60% the weight of steel, these inserts contribute to significant weight savings in medical devices, aerospace components, and portable equipment – improving handling, comfort, and performance.

• 100% Quality Inspection – Every insert undergoes rigorous dimensional, visual, and functional inspection – including thread gauging, key geometry verification, and surface finish checks – guaranteeing consistent quality and precision for critical applications.

• One‑Stop Service – We offer a comprehensive service package: custom design, engineering support, CNC machining, surface treatment, quality control, and logistics. Our team manages your project from concept to delivery.

• Full OEM/ODM Support – We offer comprehensive customisation: size (M4‑M24), length, thread pitch, key configuration, surface treatment, marking, and packaging. Our engineering team can produce inserts to your exact specifications.

• Quality Assurance & Reliable Supply – Manufactured under an ISO9001:2015 certified quality system, with rigorous dimensional and mechanical inspections. With a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, sample availability, standard delivery of 7‑15 days, and packaging in plastic bags + carton boxes, we provide a dependable supply chain for both prototype development and volume production.
