## Description

TIME-SERT is a sophisticated thread repair system that is considered by many to be superior to any other method of repairing stripped or damaged threads. TIME-SERTis a solid bushing insert. This facilitates easy installation and allows for full torque to be applied to repaired threads, ensuring a strong, permanent repair. TIME-SERTis thin walled due to synchronized internal / external threads. Small outer diameter allows for installation in areas where clearance is critical. TIME-SERTis self-positioning. The flange on the top of the insert will insure that the insert cannot wind down into the newly repaired hole. TIME-SERTis self locking. On installation the bottom internal threads of the insert expand to lock the insert in place.

Review: I’ve used heli-coils for repairs in the past and they have worked well. However, this stripped hole was on a part that took many days to get the housing accessible and I wanted a highly reliable repair. The kit is well packed and protected, appears to be high quality, and worked smoothly for this repair. The final condition almost made me want to ‘fix’ the surrounding holes (that were perfectly ok). Bottom line: expensive as I needed the full kit to start but worth the investment for this task. If the hole was in a more readily accessible location, I would have just picked up the heli-coil size and used my existing drill and die set. However, now that I have the set, it will be my first choice in the future.
Review: Magic lil till... Worked amazing, almost makes ya feel like a pro... Definitely better then a normal heli coil...

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size drill comes with 8mx1.25 kit?  will these fix an 8m previously helicoiled hole? hc uses a 21/64 bit for their insert.**
A: Drill included in kit is letter P .324 inches.
This kit will not work if the hole was previously repaired with a helicoil you must use oversized kit Big-Sert p/n 5812

**Q: What size tap handle do I need for this 1812 kit? Will a 1/4" to 1/2" tap handle be sufficient? (8mm = 0.315" but I can't tell how big the the tap is)**
A: The tap is included in the kit

**Q: What keeps these from backing out when you remove the bolt?**
A: Not sure how to best explain this...the time sert locks into the theads you make once its all the way seated into the counter bore you make. Trust me...if installed properly, the sert unthreading is not something you need to worry about. Ive had the same one in my quads oil drain bolt for over a year with no issues.

**Q: My tap for this set broke. where can i get a replacement since it's not a standard size tap? kit 1812**
A: There are several tool sites even on Amazon that can sell the taps. Visit the Time-Sert web site and they list retailers.
