Hi All,
I have a question regarding using threaded steel inserts into an aluminum housing.
If you have a steel threaded insert which is bolted into an aluminum housing from what i understand this is ok.
However if you then want to tighten a bolt inside an internal thread within the steel insert to hold a part, does this work?
Tightening torque insert to housing = 35Nm
Tightening torque bolt to insert = 22Nm.
I have attached an image to try help explain my question.
Thanks
