What Customers Are Saying

These threaded inserts can be effective if installed correctly, but require care and the right technique. Many noted the inserts are made of soft brass and can easily break if not installed properly. Key tips include using a #10-24 screw with two locking nuts, drilling a pilot hole of the correct size, and going slowly when driving the insert into the wood. Some reviewers also mentioned the packaging lacks clear installation instructions, which can lead to issues. Overall, these inserts can work well if you know the proper technique, but may not be suitable for hardwood or heavy-duty applications due to the soft material.

Make the per-drill hole a bit larger…

Would Not Recommend

Upon screwing into the per-drilled hole with a flat head. The top head where the flat head fits broke off with very little torque.

They need a tap to cut threads first

Would Not Recommend

Not strong enough for hard woods. Broke lugs off when screwing in and had to hold in a vise to get them in further and had to saw off end to use them for my project
