This 5 piece refill pack contains V-COIL free running type S inserts for UNC 7/8 x 9 thread repair. The key selection points are thread designation, insert length 1.5 D, insert execution, and the repair system already used in the component.
UNC identifies a Unified coarse inch thread used on inch based fasteners and must be matched to the stated thread series. Free running inserts are selected when normal screw running behavior is required after installation. Confirm the mating part, prepared hole, driving method, and cleanliness before you load the tool or insert. This makes the refill pack specific to production maintenance, workshop repair, field service, and plant engineering.
- installing wire thread inserts in a prepared STI thread for UNC 7/8 x 9

Note Use only with the correct STI tap, installation tool, and thread preparation process for UNC 7/8 x 9.

- Remove damaged thread material using the preparation tools specified for the repair system.
- Create the STI receiving thread with the matching repair tap.
- Clean the bore and thread flanks before the insert is installed.
- Install the wire insert to the specified seating position using the correct tool.

- What does free running type S mean in assembly?

- Why is insert length important?
- Insert length 1.5 D affects the available thread engagement in the repaired component and must match the repair requirement.
- Where can you find V-COIL thread repair technical information?
- Use the Technical information V-COIL thread repair as PDF.
- What should be checked after installation?
- Check that the insert sits below the entry surface where required, that the screw starts smoothly, and that no chips remain in the thread.
- How do you avoid mixing inch repair sizes?
- Compare thread family, nominal size, threads per inch, and insert length because similar inch sizes are not interchangeable.
- Where can you find the VÖLKEL thread repair catalog?
- Use the VC 23 catalog as PDF.
