Key locking inserts prevent rotation by using positive mechanical locks (locking keys). They are ideal for holes made of metallic materials to reinforce threads or repair stripped / damaged / worn-out threads. These units can be easily installed and removed using standard drills / hand / installation tools, without damaging the surfaces or materials. They provide more strength, versatility & resilient operation than traditional threaded holes for accommodating fasteners like screws, bolts & threaded rods.
The insert should have a minimum length as that of the desired screw diameter. Users can also select inserts that have longer lengths for greater holding strength. The exact insert length can differ based on the application & the material. Materials like steel do not require long inserts, whereas applications with soft materials like aluminium might need a longer insert.
Key locking inserts use distorted internal threads & / or locking keys to form the strongest hold of all threaded inserts and secure screws & inserts in place. On the other hand, thread locking inserts use adhesives that reach full strength after some time, for keeping inserts in place.
Helical threaded inserts usually have a tang or piece of material that acts as a catch point for the installation tool. When the tang is broken off during installation, it can end up loose inside the application and cause short-circuiting or other malfunctions. There is no such danger with key locking inserts, making them a safer solution.
