- Key Inserts are often used to reinforce tapped holes in aluminum tooling plates.
Key Inserts are installed using standard drills and taps, but the required tap-drill size is slightly larger than normal for that OD thread size. Locking keys must be driven down into the parent material during installation, providing a positive mechanical lock against rotation.
See installation tools or repair kits containing an installation tool and several Key Inserts of a given size.
Solid Key Inserts are ideal for relocating a drilled or tapped hole. This threaded plug installs quickly, and the locking keys positively prevent the insert from rotating. Solid Key Inserts are available in a wide range of inch and metric external thread sizes. Metric sizes are shown here, ranging from M8 to M30x2.
