ASME B18.29.1-2010 pdf download.Helical Coil Screw Thread Inserts— Free Running and Screw Locking (Inch Series).
1 INTRODUCTORY NOTES 1.1 Scope 1.1.1 This Standard delineates the dimensional data for the inch series helical coil screw thread inserts and the threaded holes into which they are installed. Both free-running and screw-locking types having uni- fied fine and unified coarse thread series from size #1 through 1 1 ⁄ 2 in. are covered. Appendices that describe insert selection, STI (screw thread insert) taps, gages and gaging, insert installation, and removal tooling are also included. 1.1.2 The inclusion of dimensional data in this Standard is not intended to imply that all products described are stock sizes. Consumers should consult with manufacturers concerning availability. 1.2 References The latest editions of the following documents form a part of this Standard to the extent specified herein.

The inserts are screwed into STI tapped holes to form nominal size internal threads. Inserts are installed by torquing through a diametral tang. This tang is notched for removal after installation. In the free state, the inserts are larger in diameter than the tapped hole into which they are installed. In the assembly operation, the torque applied to the tang reduces the diameter of the leading coil and permits it to enter the tapped thread. The remaining coils are reduced in diameter as they, in turn, are screwed into the tapped hole. When the torque or rotation is stopped, the coils expand with a spring-like action, anchoring the insert in place against the tapped hole.
1.4 Class of Fit Since helical coil inserts are flexible, the class of fit of the final assembly is a function of the size of the tapped hole. Helical coil STI taps are available for both tolerance Classes 2B and 3B tapped holes. Tolerance Class 2B tapped holes provide maximum production tolerances, but result in lower locking torques when screw locking inserts are used. The higher and more consistent torques given in Table 5 are met by the screw locking inserts when assembled and tested in tolerance Class 3B tapped holes in accordance with section 2. 1.5 Compatibility Assembled helical coil inserts will mate properly with items having UN external threads in accordance with ASME B1.1. In addition, due to the radius on the crest of the insert at the minor diameter, the assembled insert will mate with UNJ profile external threaded parts with controlled radius root threads per SAE AS8879. 1.6 Types of Inserts 1.6.1 Free-Running. The free-running insert pro- vides a smooth, hard, and free-running thread. 1.6.2 Screw-Locking. The screw-locking insert pro- vides a resilient locking thread produced by a series of chords on one or more of the insert coils. 2 STI TAPPED HOLE The tapped hole into which the insert is installed shall be in accordance with ASME B1.1, except that diameters are larger to accommodate the wire cross-section of the insert. Dimensions of the STI tapped holes are shown in Table 1 and calculated per Note (3) of Table 1.
