Numerous vanes and ridges around the insert allow plastic to flow between them, creating a tough bond with the printed part. This is a much more versatile, durable, professional, and attractive solution than "captive nuts" and other solutions commonly employed when the need for metal threads in printed parts arises. One primary advantage these provide is the ability to design and print assemblies in multiple component pieces that attach with metal fasteners. This means that you can create products larger than the print volume your printer supports, and that failed prints often result in less waste due to only one part of a larger assembly failing. This also typically results in more "polished", professional-looking designs. Specifications: Thread Pitch: #8-32 OAL (length): 0.185" (short) / 0.312" (long) D1 (top): 0.234" D2 (bottom): 0.226" (short) / 0.208" (long) Please allow enough time for heat to transfer from the iron to the insert - maximum strength is achieved when the plastic can fully flow around the insert. ## Features - Make sure this fits by entering your model number. - Securely and permanently add metal threads to 3D printed parts ## Images ![[initeq] #8-32 Threaded Heat Set Inserts for 3D Printing (20, Long) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/W/WEBP_402378-T2/images/I/81c6-vwq+IL.jpg) ![[initeq] #8-32 Threaded Heat Set Inserts for 3D Printing (20, Long) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/W/WEBP_402378-T2/images/I/71HDyNekhrL.jpg) ![[initeq] #8-32 Threaded Heat Set Inserts for 3D Printing (20, Long) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/W/WEBP_402378-T2/images/I/71C3l6aHUeL.jpg) ![[initeq] #8-32 Threaded Heat Set Inserts for 3D Printing (20, Long) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/W/WEBP_402378-T2/images/I/413D1on47EL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Item Package Quantity** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Only needed couldn't find in hardware store *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2022* Fit fine ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Durable fastener for 3D printed parts *by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2022* Great way to add durable machine screw threads to 3D printed parts that get taken apart repeatedly. More durable than using sheet metal screws or wood screws. I used to mess with pausing the print and dropping in nuts to capture them, but these are much easier.I use a variable temp soldering iron 20 degrees C hotter than the hotend temperature of the filament, like 255C for PETG. Once set, I use something that doesn’t melt, like a flat piece of wood, to hold the insert down so it doesn’t pop itself up as the plastic cools. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2022* Fast shipping, easy to use! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/91806304-initeq-8-32-threaded-heat-set-inserts-for-3d-printing](https://www.desertcart.be/products/91806304-initeq-8-32-threaded-heat-set-inserts-for-3d-printing) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
