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.

Broke before it even made it into the wood. Needs a really wide bladed screwdriver to reach and not break. Package should indicate what size drill bit to use.

Would RecommendI needed more of these inserts than the store had in inventory. There was no option to buy a large quantity. I bought all of the little packages the store had which made the job expensive.
Everything was ok.
Excellent fit.
Brass is a VERY soft metal!
Would Not RecommendMade my pilot holes too small (no size suggestion listed on product) and realized I should have bought the Allen wrench drive instead of the slotted screwdriver style after shearing off one side.

It works, but be careful…
Would RecommendI know it’s made of brass, so it’s a softer metal, but these all broke off halfway into the hole. Also, it would be nice to know on the package what hole size is recommended. I had to trial-and-error it a number of times before I found the right hole size, and even then, the brass broke easily halfway driven into the hole. Maybe a better means of driving it instead of a slot screwdriver would be a good idea for the manufacturer.
