Recommended pilot hole diameters and material thickness / blind hole depths for threaded inserts Ensat®
The recommended hole diameter depends on the Ensat® external thread, the strength and the physical characteristics of the work-piece material.

Hard and brittle materials require a larger hole than soft and flexible ones. Whenever necessary, the most suitable hole diameter should be determined through application testing.

The pilot hole can be drilled or formed during die-casting

Countersinking the hole is usually not necessary; however it would facilitate installation and possibly prevent damage to the workpiece surface. It also would enable the insert to be flush with the work-piece.

Material thickness:
Length of Ensat® = shortest permissible material thickness A

Blind hole depth: Minimum depth B

Minimum wall thickness: The wall thickness is dependant upon
the hardness and / or strength of the workpiece material.

Recommendation for light metals:  S ≥ 0,2 to ≥ 0,6 d2
Recommendation for cast iron: S ≥ 0,3 to ≥ 0,5 d2

d2 = Outside diameter [mm] of Ensat® insert

the pilot hole can be driller or formed during die casting

DA = + 0,2 to 0,4 mm
a = 1 to 1,5 x the pitch of the external thread
