    Image of Product. Front orientation. Threaded Insert Removal Tools. 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.

    Spring-Loaded Helical Threaded Insert Prong Break-Off Tools

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Threaded Insert Installation Tools. 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.
    For Long Inserts—Use these tools for inserts that are 2 1/2 to 3 times as long as the diameter.
