RE_M PLASTIC INSERTS WITH METAL THREAD Material : PA Colour : Black Dimensions : mm
The use of rectangular tubes is a very common architectural and structural choice for structures requiring high resistance to lateral bending. To finish these frameworks professionally, the rectangular finned end cap with an integrated metal thread is an essential component. This technical component fits precisely into the cavities of the straight rectangular profiles, closing off the end in a very elegant manner whilst providing an exceptionally strong anchor point.
The combination of the resilient polymer, which forms the main body of the end cap, and the steel used for the thread creates a perfect balance between shock absorption and structural strength. The spaced lateral ribs (the famous fins) ensure a strong, multi-directional grip inside the tube. This feature is particularly vital for rectangular shapes, which are often prone to specific types of twisting. The metal core, meanwhile, gives you the freedom to screw on and off articulated legs, glides or fixed castors without ever damaging the thread, even after multiple adjustments or repositioning.
This model is highly sought-after for the construction of conference tables, the assembly of industrial control consoles, specialised shelving and the erection of heavy advertising display stands. The rectangular shape offers an elongated base, a feature often favoured by designers or for distributing the load along a continuous line. Installing this product requires no special technical skills or complex tools. A firm tap with a simple mallet is more than enough to lock the assembly in place. Your main focus should be on the dimensions: the external length and width of the tube will determine the size of the end cap required to ensure a flawless installation.
