That was informative. But, do the inserts need to be the same length as the hole or the bolt used in the fixture? It would seem that the steel insert could be shorter than the actual bolt to allow the same insert to be used for a variety of bolt hole lengths/depths. Just as long as the insert can take the necessary torque to hold the bolt in place. Am I correct with this assumption or must I match the insert length exactly with the bolt length?
If I use this do I have to take my engine apart? I don't want shaving in my piston chamber... Or is there a way not to get the shaving down there? Any tips would help..
Yeah I ended up takin it to a shop, done in a few hours, the bad part, it has to go back for the same issue, just a different plug.. Is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening again?
Very breve explaination and very easy to understand thanks brother to take your time to educate me MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR WORK AMEN AND AMEN HALLELUJAH 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️👍
i've found a poor repair on a head for an exhaust header stud. Whoever did it used a helicoil and it ripped out due to the torque specs. Is it too late for a time sert repair? The repair used a 10x1.25 helicoil kit, i'm wondering if the include bit used is smaller than what would be used in the time sert kit.
Easy out… it’s basically a reverse (left hand) threaded rod. The more your screw it in, (anti clockwise) the more it unscrews the insert (or a drilled out, snapped off bolt, for example).
I have used Cross Wire Inserts (Helicoils) for many years, and they are much cheaper than this type of thread repair bush insert. Also if the stripped hole is close to the material edge, the Cross Wire Insert (the old original Cross Ltd) will work well, but the thicker bush insert may be too close to the material edge.
i know this is a bit late but i would hook a air sorce to the crank vent and applie like 5 maybe 10 psi to the block then use a ton of grease to keep shavings out. still would change the oil after and use a magnetic drain plug.
Maybe 'farm out' the Job to a Local Engineering Company.... to fit a 'Helicoil' spring ... I have fitted many and they will do your Job Fine...Shouldn't cost too much maybe about30 bucks max....
Wow. That's the best TimeSert tutorial I've ever seen. Thank you!
Very clever system. The official website was not clear on how the Time-serts lock in place, but your demonstration showed it very clearly. Thanks.
This was actually a really good tutorial, solid animations. Very informative.
nice animations and clear explanations. thanks for taking the time to make this
I love this tutorial, VERY straight to the point
Awesome graphics , very descriptive and insightful! Thanks
Excellent, so condensed and informative. Thanks.
Great video, answers some questions I had.
An excellent job - very well done and very helpful - you sold me... fixing a stripped spark plug hole on an E-Type Jag :-)
very good video!
easy to understand!
unlike others!
thank you really very much!
Excellent description. Thank you!

Old video but the information still holds true to this day. Had a buddy reach out with an issue of stripped threads and I sent him this video.
Excellent, thanks for posting!
Great video and explanation -- thanks!
Thank you
I'm fixing a stripped rocker arm hole and got the 11 mm insert do I need to go with the 16 mm insert or will the 11mm work
Great Vid - many thanks.

Can you use two time serts if you have an 1/14 thread cavity?
do these come in a left-hand thread? Thanks for the video.
This system is considered to be superior to other thread repair systems.

That is one cool tool. Makes me want to go do a rebuild just so I can use it.

Robert Dieder what did you find out I am facing just about the same thing
accually very helpfull thaks
Congrats nice video, what's the name of the tool used to remove a Time Sert Insert ?
Easy out… it’s basically a reverse (left hand) threaded rod. The more your screw it in, (anti clockwise) the more it unscrews the insert (or a drilled out, snapped off bolt, for example).
do i need lube for aluminum?
No
PATC; your assumption is correct- you can use shorter inserts, especially for non-critical areas such as drains, manifolds, pumps and brackets.
Note that this video is pretty old. I noticed that the kits now come with a Red Loctite to use on the insert, probably for more strength...
I have used Cross Wire Inserts (Helicoils) for many years, and they are much cheaper than this type of thread repair bush insert. Also if the stripped hole is close to the material edge, the Cross Wire Insert (the old original Cross Ltd) will work well, but the thicker bush insert may be too close to the material edge.
Can't you just use the head bolt to set the time sert?
yea. i use heli coil. if the bolt corrodes wont it take the time sert out with it?
Where can I get this?
