Key Locking Threaded Inserts

Helisolid Key Locking Threaded Inserts are solid, one-piece, key-locking inserts for use in original
equipment or used to repair damaged threads. The locking keys of Helisolid Key Locking Threaded
Inserts provide a positive mechanical lock which prevents rotation due to vibration or torsion.

Helisolid Key Locking Threaded Inserts are ideal for thread reinforcement, especially when the mating
stud or bolt will be removed frequently. They provide strong, permanent steel threads in a weaker
parent material — ferrous, non-ferrous, or non-metallic. Key Locking Inserts are also well suited for
quick repair of stripped, damaged, or worn threads. A solid version is also available to use as a handy
plug to relocate holes drilled or tapped on the wrong location. Install with standard drills and taps.

Helisolid Key Locking Threaded Inserts have 2 or 4 pre-assembled keys depending on the size of the
external thread. After installation of the keys into the parent material the assembly is positively locked
in place.

• Solid, one-piece threaded insert construction provides a high degree of pull-out strength
