> Has anyone tried using a thread locker on a Helicoil insert? You mean like Loctite? I always do. Just a drop on the outside of the insert, near the tip, before screwing it into place. Give it a little time to set before breaking the tang and flushing the hole with solvent, then use a little anti-seize on the bolt. -- Randall |
