Fixi Srl, the Italian manufacturer and distributor of industrial fastening systems, has added a range of inserts for round and square tubes to its wide range of fixing solutions.
Fixi’s tube inserts are designed to solve issues related to the forming of threaded holes inside tubes by replacing the traditional process of welding nuts inside tubes, yet providing a secure and tight fit.
Made of special steel, Fixi tube inserts guarantee high-tensile strength after application thanks to the anchoring function of the elastic crowns, which expand once inside the tube, without altering the shape and design. The easy and quick fitting by pressure installation, both manually or with automated machines, is one the strengths of these inserts.
The range of inserts is available in different sizes to fit all types of tubes, ranging from 11.8mm to 61.5mm for inside diameters of round tubes and from 15.7mm x 15.7mm to 48.8mm x 48.8mm for inside dimensions of square tubes. The thread sizes range from M6 to M10 is sufficient for any structural requirement.
For both round and square tubes the insert is available with or without head. The flanged version, in addition to having an aesthetic function by closing the end of the tube, allows the insert to work even under pressure.
Fixi sales team is available to give further technical and commercial support and offer the best solution for customers’ needs.
