I am looking for some whatchamacallits

I am looking for some br*** inserts that are knurled on the outside and are threaded on the inside. I had some from a friend that worked at a casting plant. But the place no longer makes the same stuff and he cannot remember where they got them. If I at least knew what to call them I could look them up. Local industrial supply only has kids at the counter, they need a name.

 

Check Mcmaster Carr. If they ain't got it, you don't want it.

 

look at threaded insert on mcmaster carr

 

Yer lookin 4 "Nutserts"

If this isn't it these guys have lots of different fasteners.

 

He is not looking for Nutsert's

These are the ones I use, for my casting of molded parts. can be used in Laminated FRP Parts, during the layup of the parts.
( fibergl*** reinforced parts)

You can order online

 

I've bought em from home depot or lowes before but I think it was more of a barb than a knurl

 

Thanks, Divco.
I should have said not nutserts.
Mcmaster Carr is great if you know what you are looking for.
I find that asking a friend sometimes gets you a better answer.

 

Search Mcmaster for threaded inserts. There are several styles, press fit, mold in etc.

 

The pics look like what Ford 4.6 intake uses if you are going to mold them in I probably have some I saved out of old intake for some reason ? ill look Larry

 

You want Dodge (not the car maker..) Ultraserts. Go to the Helicoil site (Emhart Fastening Systems Group) and they should have them. I have a catalog in my hand, PM me if you need something looked up.

Clearly not whatchamacallits, these are thingamajigs! Sorry, couldn't help myself. Looks like some of the good folks on here have helped already, I'm just here to try and make you chuckle this time.

 

Used to attach gizmos to the whatchamacallits.

 

I thought they were Hoochie Mommas

 

I thought they were referred to as dooflickies???

 

the best ones are the chingadaras
