Reliable and automated insert technology for lightweight sandwich structures in the aerospace industry
For design engineers developing lightweight assemblies, balancing structural integrity with weight reduction is a constant challenge. Honeycomb and foam cores offer exceptional strength-to-weight ratios but present notoriously difficult substrates for reliable mechanical joining. Traditional fixing methods often crush fragile cores or require heavy, slow-curing chemical bonding.
To bridge this gap, EJOT has engineered a specialised industrial engineering fastener range specifically designed for honeycomb fasteners and advanced core applications.
The Product Offering
EJOT’s portfolio focuses on high-performance mechanical integration without compromising the substrate's structural cells. At the heart of this range are innovative honeycomb panel threaded inserts and foam board fasteners designed to provide robust, reusable machine threads in low-density materials.
For solid core structures, ranging from architectural insulation to complex automotive components, EJOT offers specialised foam screws and foam board anchors. These solutions include high-strength foam fasteners and dedicated foam insulation fasteners that tap directly into the material matrix, establishing a high-load anchor point without the need for a sleeve or secondary adhesive.

Key Engineering Benefits
- Preserved Core Integrity: These foam board fasteners utilise unique thread profiles and friction-welding geometry to distribute high clamp loads over a wide surface area, preventing core collapse.
- Process Efficiency: Unlike traditional potting methods, EJOT's mechanical fasteners install in seconds, dramatically reducing cycle times on the assembly line.
- Material Versatility: The range is highly compatible with materials used by leading epp foam manufacturers, ensuring high pull-out strength even in ultra-low-density expanded polypropylene foam (EPP).
- Design Freedom: By introducing reliable, localised load distribution points, engineers can confidently specify thinner sandwich panels, maximising weight savings across aerospace, automotive, and industrial designs.
