In electric vehicles (EVs), thread inserts are vital for battery pack assembly and lightweight chassis design. KernalCoil Thread Insert  developed the different

specialized wire thread inserts for Tesla’s Model Y battery modules. These heat-resistant stainless steel thread inserts secure lithium-ion cells, ensuring

thermal stability and crash safety. KernalCoil’s thread fastener solutions cut assembly time by 25% while meeting IATF16949 functional safety standards.

Another example, which supplies self-tapping inserts for Ford’s F-150 Lightning. These inserts embed directly into aluminum frames, eliminating the need

for welding and reducing weight by 15%. As automakers shift to EVs, demand for corrosion-resistant inserts—like those from KATO Tangless Thread

Inserts in Japan—is projected to grow by 12% annually.
