How to Install Key-Locking Inserts
More
Mil. Spec. Stainless Steel Key-Locking Inserts
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.
Choose inserts with a thick wall for greater strength than thin-wall inserts, or to fill a large hole.
