Can TIME-SERTs be removed easily? TIME-SERTs can be removed with a spiral point screw extractor, or drilled out with the drill that came in the repair kit.
How are TIME SERT inserts put in place?
On installation the bottom few internal threads of the insert are cold rolled to expand into the mating external threads of the base material locking the insert in place. TIME-SERT ® inserts have a flange, which will give them a positive placement on installation for “accurate specific depths”.
What do you need to know about TIME SERT?
TIME-SERT ® is a thin wall, solid bushing, self locking insert with positive placement. TIME-SERT ® inserts are a thin wall solid bushing insert. This guarantees easy installation and allows for full load use of tapped hole, ensuring protection against stress and vibration.
Can a TIME SERT be re-inserted into a hole?
Yes, if the threads in the base material are not damaged a new TIME-SERT can be re-inserted into that hole. This is a common practice on CNC pallet changers. When an insert starts to show wear over time, the insert can be removed with a screw extractor then replaced with a new one.
What kind of Tool Kit do I need for TIME SERT?
The tool kits listed are the “Internal size”. Metric Example: If your bolt is M6x1.0 and your stripped thread is M6x1.0 you will need a M6x1.0 thread repair kit. TIME-SERTs can be removed with a spiral point screw extractor, or drilled out with the drill that came in the repair kit.

Why do you need a TIME SERT bushing insert?
TIME-SERT ® inserts are “timed” internal to external which gives a very thin wall thickness which means TIME-SERTs can be installed in areas of limited space and clearance. TIME-SERT ® being a solid bushing insert gives it added strength, easily withstands high temperatures without damage or deforming.
