Helical Inserts
Helical inserts install into openings in a mounting surface and provide new female threads for installing male-threaded fasteners. They use a coiled wire design that engages the mounting surface and provides a female-threaded opening. Their design allows them to be used for repairing stripped holes, strengthening an existing hole, converting an existing hole to a smaller size, and adding threading to a non-threaded opening.
Free-Running Tanged Helical Inserts
Free-running tanged helical inserts install into openings in the mounting surface using an installation tool and integrated installation tang. This tang assists with installation and is knocked out of the way once the male fastener is installed. Their threads do not feature any locking mechanisms and require a thread locker or adhesive to prevent unwanted rotation.

Screw-Locking Tanged Helical Inserts
Free-Running Tangless Helical Inserts
Free-running tangless helical inserts install into openings in the mounting surface using an installation tool. Rather than use a removable tang for installation, this design doesn't leave loose tangs behind after installation. This ensures that sensitive parts are not affected by loose debris and lets users adjust or remove the inserts after installation. Their threads do not feature any locking mechanisms and require a thread locker or adhesive to prevent unwanted rotation.
