Lubricated Stainless Steel Screw-Locking Helical Inserts

A dry film keeps the screw from sticking or binding in these inserts during installation, yet a distorted thread grips the screw to resist loosening. Also known as Heli-Coil inserts, they have coils that expand once installed to securely anchor the insert. All have a prong for ease of installation. An installation tool grips the prong and reduces the coil diameter, enabling the insert to fit in tapped holes. Remove the prong to insert the screw. Installation requires a drill bit, a helical insert tap, an installation tool, and a prong break-off tool.
Inserts that meet DIN 8140 adhere to international standards for dimensions.
