V-COIL Free-Running Thread Insert Type S BSF 1" x 10 - 1.0 D (10 pieces)
The V-COIL Free-Running Thread Insert Type S is the professional solution for restoring damaged or worn internal threads. It not only restores the original thread but, thanks to its superior material properties, often creates a stronger and more resilient thread than the original. It is ideal for repair, thread reinforcement, or the recovery of rejected parts.
This thread insert, made from high-quality austenitic stainless chrome-nickel precision profile steel wire, offers a variety of advantages that make it the top choice for professional applications.
- Applications:
- Thread repair of damaged or worn threads.
- Thread reinforcement in materials with low shear strength (e.g., aluminum, magnesium).
- Salvaging rejects with incorrectly cut threads.
- Key Advantages:
- Strong and durable thread connection: The spring-like form of the insert ensures optimal thread properties.
- Increased load capacity: Repaired threads are often stronger than the original due to improved thread properties.
- High resistance: Offers increased temperature and corrosion resistance.
- Reliable position: The position of the insert is securely maintained in the bore due to the radial pressure effect.
- Step 1: Drilling
Use a suitable twist drill to drill out the damaged thread cleanly. - Step 2: Tapping
Use the special V-COIL tap to cut the receiving thread into the bore. - Step 3: Inserting the thread insert
Screw the thread insert evenly and without pressure into the cut thread using the V-COIL installation tool. - Step 4: Breaking the tang
Break off the installation tang at the predetermined breaking point with the tang break tool.

- Q1: What does "free-running" mean?
- A "free-running" thread insert means that the new thread has a normal tolerance and the screw or bolt can run through it without increased friction or a clamping effect.
- Q2: How is the length specification "1.0 D" to be understood?
- "D" stands for the nominal diameter. A length of "1.0 D" therefore means that the thread insert is exactly one time the length of the nominal diameter of the thread (in this case, 1 inch). This specifies the length precisely and in accordance with standards.
- Q3: What is the difference between this insert and a self-locking thread insert?
- A free-running insert offers a smooth, durable thread that is not self-locking. An insert with a clamping effect has one or more locking coils that clamp the screw, making it suitable for applications where resistance to loosening is required.
- Q4: What tools do I need for installation?
- For proper installation, you typically need a suitable twist drill, a V-COIL tap, a V-COIL installation tool, and a tang break tool.
- Q5: Can I install the insert without a special V-COIL tool?
- It is strongly discouraged. The installation tool is crucial for correct assembly, as it screws the insert evenly and without preload into the bore, which is essential for the function and durability of the repaired thread.
With V-COIL thread inserts, you ensure a reliable, strong, and durable thread connection with every repair.
