description Urhausen features Crossroad Distributor Source. In 2004, Scott Campbell found a partner in Bordo International located in Australia and began operating as Crossroad Distributor Source. Key products in the beginning were Powercoil threaded insert kits and bulk inserts along with handy "Black Book" technical and user-friendly reference guides for engineering, fasteners and then another version for electrical components. Additional products soon followed to support applications using threaded inserts and Crossroad introduced Loksert, their line of key-locking inserts, and a few years later, Bondsert as a solid bushing insert. A very successful product introduction came in 2019 when the company began selling E-Z Chamfer which was quickly adopted by the industry as the best tool for creating a chamfer on a wide range of materials. The tool is so popular that they have increased the original diameter range from M8-M22 with a separate tool that will handle M18-M38. This year plans are underway to also offer a tool known as Bell Chamfer which will work on diameters of M2-M22.
