Review on πŸ”§ Enhancing Efficiency with Z Threaded Hex Flanged Internal Threads by John Mejia

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Use a 3/8 "-1 " fully threaded bolt as the inserter

Failed to load media. I've seen a couple of reviews on here that said the thin heads broke when trying to put these things in place with an Allen wrench. Unfortunately I had similar problems. I bought a 1" 3/8" bolt and put a washer on it and then used that as a liner along with the washer to help loosen it. It worked great. I was even able to salvage some of them that I had messed up with my Allen key. I have attached a video showing how I will collect them. Some people have mentioned that these items need to be pulled out in turn when inserting, but this is not a problem when using a screw. I just installed them with no problems. I was actually able to tighten it quite a bit in the end and I could tell it took a lot of friction because the screw was always very hot when I pulled it out. One caveat is that when removing the 1" screw from the press nut, you must tighten it very hard to get enough torque to loosen the internal threads. But as long as you do this, this method works great for me.

Pros
  • Simply drill an appropriately sized hole and install with an allen wrench or optional drive tool
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous
