Helical Threaded Insert Removal Tools

To remove installed helical inserts, place the tip of these tools into the insert and lightly strike the tool’s head. Then, turn the tool counterclockwise with pressure to extract the insert.

Narrow Profile—The tip of these tools has a narrower angle than standard removal tools to reduce the chance it will dig into your material’s surface when you strike the tool.

Helical Threaded Inserts

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.

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.

18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these inserts resist rust and mild chemicals.

Helical Insert Taps

Match the size of helical inserts so they fit tightly when installed in the hole.

High-Speed Steel—These taps resist heat and wear to stay sharp.

Plug Chamfer—Our go-to chamfer type. With a longer taper than a bottoming chamfer, they are easier to turn but won't thread as close the bottom of a hole.

Bottoming Chamfer—Cut all the way to the bottom of blind holes with taps that have the shortest taper. Since these require the most force to turn, they’re often used to finish holes started by taper- or plug-chamfer taps.

Easy-Start Helical Threaded Insert Installation Tools

These tools compress the diameter of your insert so it fits easily into a tapped hole. They’re the best choice for preventing misaligned or damaged threads—just make sure you have space to turn the crank. Screw or slide an insert onto your tool and drive it between a quarter-turn and half-turn below the surface. Also known as prewinders.

Threaded Insert Installation Tools with Depth Stop

T-Handle


Prong Slot Drive	Threaded Drive

Ensure consistent installation across multiple inserts. Set your desired installation depth, and the stop will prevent you from driving your insert any further.

Prong Slot Drive Helical Insert Tool—Install both left- and right-hand threaded inserts with any thread pitch. However, these tools don't align the threads like threaded-drive tools, so installation may be more difficult.

Threaded Drive Helical Insert Tool—These tools align each coil of your insert perfectly with the thread pitch of your tapped hole for easy installation.

Screw-Locking Helical Threaded Inserts

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.

Helical Threaded Insert Installation and Prong Break-Off Tools

T-Handle

Install helical inserts and break off prongs with one tool and a hammer strike. These tools have a slot that grips your insert’s prong for turning both left- and right-hand threads. Slide an insert onto these tools and drive them a quarter-turn to half-turn below the material’s surface. Then, strike the end of the tool with a hammer to break off the prong. These tools work with pronged helical inserts.
