    Choose the right threaded insert for your application and learn how to install it securely.

    Key-Locking Threaded Inserts for Soft Metal

    Image of Product. Bottom orientation. Threaded Inserts. Key-Locking Threaded Inserts for Soft Metal.
    Add strong threads in soft metal, such as aluminum. The keys on these inserts drive into holes to hold more securely than thread-locking or helical inserts. They prevent slipping and rotating, so they’re stable enough for use in vehicle or aerospace parts that experience heavy vibration. These inserts are comparable to Keensert inserts.
    To install, drill and tap a hole in your material. Then, thread the insert onto the installation tool and screw it into the hole. Place the tool over the keys and hit it with a hammer to drive them in.
    Standard Wall—Stronger than thin-wall inserts, these are your go-to choice for threading most holes.
    Extra-Thick Wall—Stronger than standard- and thin-wall inserts, use them to reduce the size of tapped holes or replace threads that have been drilled out.
    Black Phosphate-Coated Steel—These inserts resist occasional moisture.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these inserts resist rust and mild chemicals.
    High-Strength High-Temperature A286 Stainless Steel—High temperatures won't reduce the load capacity of these inserts. They also resist chemicals such as bleach and chlorine.

    Mil.-Spec. Key-Locking Threaded Inserts For Soft Metal

    Image of Product. Bottom orientation. Threaded Inserts. Mil.-Spec. Key-Locking Threaded Inserts For Soft Metal.
    These inserts are manufactured and tested to meet or compare to strict standards adopted by the U.S. military. The keys drive into aluminum and other soft metal for a secure hold that won't slip or rotate, even in vibrating vehicle or aerospace parts. These inserts are comparable to Keensert inserts.
    To install, drill and tap a hole in your material. Then, thread the insert onto the installation tool and screw it into the hole. Place the tool over the keys and hit it with a hammer to drive them in.
    Standard Wall—Stronger than thin-wall inserts, these are your go-to choice for threading most holes.
    Extra-Thick Wall—Stronger than standard- and thin-wall inserts, use them to reduce the size of tapped holes or replace threads that have been drilled out.
    High-Strength Cadmium-Plated Alloy Steel—These inserts have the strength to stand up to high-pressure applications and a plating that helps screws thread in smoothly.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these inserts resist rust and mild chemicals.

    Steel Socket Nuts

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Socket Nuts. Steel Socket Nuts.
    Also known as Allen nuts, use these with socket head cap screws in recessed holes and tight spaces that don't have enough clearance for a wrench. Tighten them with a 6-point hex key. They can also be used as an insert by pressing or drawing them into nonhardened steel, cast iron, or soft nonferrous metal or by molding them into plastic, ceramic, fiber, and similar materials. Made from alloy steel, they're comparable in strength to Grade 9 bolts.

    These weld nuts prevent fasteners from backing out of assemblies that rotate counterclockwise. Their left-hand threads pair with left-hand screws and rods to stop the fastener from loosening as the assembly turns. Weld them to the end of a tube for a stronger connection than tapping the tube directly. Also known as tube adapters and weldable threaded tube ends.

    Tap the thread size you need into the solid body of these inserts. They’re a great choice when you need a custom combination of internal thread size and external diameter. Use them to repair or add new threads in soft metal, such as aluminum. They can also plug threaded holes without the hassle of welding. Keys on the inserts drive into material to prevent slipping and rotating in the hole.
    To install, drill and tap a hole in your material. Then, thread the insert onto the installation tool and screw it into the hole. Place the tool over the keys and hit it with a hammer to drive them in.
    Black Phosphate-Coated Steel—These inserts resist occasional moisture.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these inserts resist rust and mild chemicals.

    Create the tightest hold in aluminum and other soft metal without screws sticking. The lubricant on these inserts eases installation, and the irregularly shaped threads won’t let screws back out from vibration. Inserts have keys that drive into material to prevent them from slipping or rotating in the hole.
    To install, drill and tap a hole in your material. Then, thread the insert onto the installation tool and screw it into the hole. Place the tool over the keys and hit it with a hammer to drive them in.

    Align threads with off-center parts. These inserts have floating threads that shift slightly so you can insert screws at a slight angle as you fasten two parts together. They're comparable to Keensert inserts.
    To install, drill and tap a hole in your material. Then, thread the insert onto the installation tool and screw it into the hole. Place the tool over the keys and hit it with a hammer to drive them in.

    Pronged

    The irregularly shaped threads tightly grip screws to prevent them from loosening or backing out under vibration. Use these inserts to create or repair threads in pumps and other machinery that shakes and rattles. Also known as Heli-Coil inserts.
    Installation requires a drill bit, a helical insert tap, and an installation tool.
    Pronged—The prong attaches to an installation tool for precise control as you drive inserts in. Remove the prong with a punch or break-off tool before inserting a screw.

    Pronged

    Restore, reinforce, or create threads in metal. The tough coils on these inserts expand once installed to anchor in a tapped hole. Also known as Heli-Coil inserts, they're often used in engine heads and machinery housings where strong connections are critical. Unlike threadlocking inserts, you can remove and reuse them without them losing their strength.
    Installation requires a drill bit, a helical insert tap, and an installation tool.

    Thread-Locking Threaded Inserts

    With Loctite® adhesive already on the threads, these inserts won’t back out or vibrate loose. The adhesive reaches full strength after 72 hours. Unlike helical inserts, you can install them with a standard drill and tap. However, thread-locking inserts are difficult to remove and reuse.
    After drilling and tapping your hole, install inserts with a wrench or an installation bit. To use a wrench, thread an insert and two hex nuts onto a bolt. Then, grip and turn the top nut to drive into the hole. For slotted inserts, you can drive with a slotted screwdriver instead.
