1. Which inserts can you install with this tool?

The tool is designed for wire thread inserts in size M 12 × 1.5 and fits V-COIL and compatible systems.

2. Can you use the tool manually?

Yes — you can use it manually, but a 1/4" ratchet or torque wrench provides the most consistent results.

3. Does this tool remove existing inserts?

No, this tool is for installation only. Removing inserts requires a special extraction tool.

If your insert has a break-off tang, you must remove it after installation using the correct tang break-off tool.

5. What if the insert is not aligned correctly?

Check if the tapped thread is clean and undamaged. If necessary, remove the insert and install a new one.

Use compressed air, a thread brush and a clean lint-free cloth to remove oil and debris.

No — it must sit flush or slightly below the surface to ensure proper function.

8. How do you verify correct insert seating?

The insert should sit flush or slightly below the surface. Check visually or with a gauge if needed.
