Quickly restore stripped threads—these inserts come with through-hole taps and installation tools. The tough coils on these inserts expand once installed to anchor in a tapped hole.

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.

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.

What you need to add or repair a range of thread sizes in soft metal, such as aluminum. These assortments include multiple key-locking inserts of each size and an installation tool. They're comparable to Keensert inserts.

Paired with the right tool for installation, these inserts create strong threads in soft metal, such as aluminum. They have keys that drive into material to prevent inserts from slipping and rotating in the hole.

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.

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.
