How to Install Key-Locking Inserts

Mil. Spec. Alloy Steel Key-Locking Inserts

The strongest key-locking inserts we offer, these inserts are made to stringent military specifications. Drive the keys into the surrounding material for a more secure hold than thread-locking inserts. Use them to repair or change threads in soft metals such as aluminum. Inserts may be mildly magnetic. They’re comparable to Keensert® inserts. Installation requires a drill bit, a standard tap, an installation tool, and a hammer.
Inserts with a thin wall are often used in small holes or near the edge of a workpiece.
