N E T INSERTS NC Precast Concrete Inserts Star Inserts are precision die-cast of zinc alloy and have excellent resistance to atmospheric conditions. These inserts are particularly suited for use in precast concrete elements and can be quickly secured to the form with an appropriately sized NC bolt. The Star Insert can also be nailed to the form utilizing the Star Adapter Plug. Star Inserts are excellent inserts for securing machinery and equipment, for suspending piping and supporting railing/poles. Two different types of inserts are available: Standard - Insert has a closed bottom to prevent concrete from entering the insert. Open Bottom - Threads run the full depth of the insert. Star Adapter Plug The Star Adapter Plug is available in all Star Insert diameters. The plug is a setting plug for installing the insert into precast forms. Its use effectively seals the insert against concrete seepage. Before each use, coat the side of the plug as well as the threaded portion with a form release or water resistant grease. This will allow the plug to be easily removed from the concrete. The plug may be ordered with a 1/8" diameter smooth hole, for use in nailing to wood forms or a #8-32 threaded hole for attaching to steel forms.
