SOLID THREAD INSERTS, TOOLING AND KITS

The Solid Alternative for Thread Repair

Designed to repair damaged threads or for use in original equipment, Keysert^® and KEENSERTS^® feature a key-locking action to prevent rotation due to vibration or torsion.

Keysert inserts are commercial-grade products packaged in single-size or range kits for either inch or metric sizes. Both carbon and stainless steel materials are available in Thinwall, Heavy Duty, Extra Heavy Duty, and Solid styles. 

KEENSERTS are high-grade, stainless steel inserts manufactured and tested according to MIL-I-45914 rev A. This rigorous process includes testing internal and external threads (proof and pull-out), torque-out, locking torque, non-destructive testing, and magnetic permeability testing. KEENSERTS offer complete traceability and are available in internal thread-locking and miniature sizes.

Tooling and Kits

Keysert and KEENSERTS solid thread inserts are installed with either manual or pneudraulic tooling to meet your specific needs.

Manual tooling is offered in a tooling-only kit to install a range of Keysert insert sizes from M5-M20 and #10-1". Combination range kits include either 4 or 6 insert sizes along with matching manual tools. There is also a line of manual tools to install our KEENSERTS mil-spec inserts.

Pneudralic tooling is used to install either Keysert or KEENSERTS in sizes from M5-M24 or #10-1” using a specific nosepiece for each size. Nosepieces are a modular 3-piece design with each component available as an individual part.
