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


Crank Handle	T-Handle	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.

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.

Spring-Loaded Helical Threaded Insert Prong Break-Off Tools

Cleanly snap prongs off installed helical inserts with just one hand. Because they work faster than standard prong break-off tools, these are a good choice when you have many prongs to remove. Press your tool into an insert to trigger the spring-loaded punch and snap off the prong.

For Standard-Length Inserts—Use these tools for inserts that are 1 to 2 times as long as the diameter.

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.
