💯 E-Z LOK Externally Threaded Insert 303 Stainless Steel 1/2"-13 Internal Threads 3/4"-10 External Threads 0.656" Length (Pack of 5) - Made in the USA Review

Follow the instructions and everything works great. Make sure you use the correct tap. Buy a professional quality faucet, everything made in China seems too fragile and fragile.

My OneWheel rails are made of aluminum and the screws are notorious for drilling holes. I had to sand some of them to a height of just 3mm but they did the job. Much more exploration than helicoil style inserts.

For my specific application (caliper mount) it was better than Heli-Coil. This was due to the thickness of the mounting material. Another advantage was the use of a standard size tap for the outside diameter. I actually had to grind down some of the insert material to match the thickness of the bracket. Note: take your time. when cutting external threads and use plenty of oil.

This was just what I needed to fix a stripped thread in a cross member on my Jeep. After tapping the hole to the right size, they fit very well.

I bought these by spending $40 on a coil repair kit at my local auto parts store which was a waste of time and not the best quality. I bought a Q drill and an M10 tap and these bits are very easy to use. My only concern is that the Loctite never cured, I've used them in aluminum and they've tried to loosen by simply hand tightening the bolt after they've cured for 20 minutes, so I used Permatex Red Loc removed and applied. -tite and that solved it. In general, I will use either these inserts or
