TIME-SERT M6x1.0 Thread Repair kit #1610

Product Information

Apply oil to the insert driver to help lubricate it and to minimize the chance of galling the threads of the insert during installation. If TIME-SERT or any variation is used in your main URL this is a violation of our registered trademark and we will terminate the relatonship.

TIME-SERTs can be removed with a spiral point screw extractor, or drilled out with the drill that came in the repair kit. The insert is provided with a built-in flange that automatically positions its depth during installation. The diameter of the spark plug will be the size. The threads or pitch will be a standard for the diameter. Example if the diameter is M14 the standard pitch will be 1.25 or M14x1.25.

How do Big-Serts work?

The problem that can happen is the reamer did not ream all the way thru the hole so it leaves a step in the hole that will STOP the tap because the 45 degree counterbore was not fully done. This can happen because of 2 possible things. The reamer is hitting a VALVE or the top of the PISTON which is stopping it from entering all the way. You can also bring the bolt to your local fastener house in your area, they will be able to measure it for you. You will need to know the thread size and pitch of the bolt to repair it.

Any claims for Discrepancies in shipment must be made within one week of receipt of merchandise or no credit will be issued.The reason for this is simply the weakest link effect. If you only repair the bad hole or holes and leave the others there is a very good chance the other non-repaired holes may fail. Use Time-Sert driver oil p/n 6010 or 30 wt motor oil on the external threads of the driver when installilng inserts. Our loctite p/n 6020 is required on taper seat spark plug inserts. Only the taper seat style spark plug inserts require loctite not washer seat. We are sealing on the built in taper of the insert so we have a perfect seal from the spark plug to the insert but we need to insure that the external threads of the insert are sealed by the loctite to keep any gases from passing by the external threads of insert as a precaution. The bolts on this print out will probably not look like your bolt or drain plug, that's not a problem as we are only looking TIME-SERT makes no claims on torque specs or pullout, nor do we provide them. The reason being there are many factors that can determine the end result of the insert thread strength. One being the installation process.
