Features and Benefits A HeliCoil is a coiled-wire type of insert used to create internal screw threads to accommodate standard-sized fasteners. Some of the advantages of using a Helicoil include. • Thread Size Range A large range of available thread diameters allow for use in a variety of thread repair applications.

Corresponding metric sizes are also available.
• Thread Type Selection Inserts are available in various thread type and pitch configurations including UNC, UNF, Metric Coarse Pitch and Fine Pitch, UNEF, UNS, and Pipe Thread. Each insert is offered in several different length options. • Material Options Several material choices are available including Stainless Steel, Phosphor Bronze, Inconel X, Nitronic 60, and Titanium. A selection of finish coatings is also offered. How It Works: • As its name suggests, a HeliCoil is a helically coiled stainless steel wire that has a diamond-shaped cross-section. The wire cross-section allows the external portion of the wire to screw into the receiving threads in the housing during installation. On the inner portion of the wire, the spacing between the coils of the insert form new conventional 60째 threads.
The coils of the insert are compressed during installation as the insert is threaded into the housing. Like a coiled spring, the compressed windings of the installed insert attempt to expand against the walls of the threaded housing. The resulting tension between the insert and the walls of the housing helps to retain the insert and keep it from unthreading. • The insert is provided with a drive tang that is used during installation to thread the insert into the receiving threads in the housing. A special installation tool engages the tang of the insert to drive it into the housing.

Once installed, the tang is no longer needed, and is removed. • A small notch is formed into the insert that slightly reduces the coil cross sectional area at that location. When the time comes to remove the tang, the notch will cause it to break-off at that point.
