OMT 3/8"-16 Thread Repair Kit with HSS Drill Bit & 15 Thread Inserts

A real life saver! This set isn't what I'd consider professional quality but pretty darn close. Definitely adequate for the average DIY'er. I've got more inserts than I'll probably ever use. The taps and bits are surprisingly good quality and easily get the job done. The storage case is better than most. It is a bit on the thin side but has genuine latches which is nice. As long as it's not abused it should easily last for years. Can't beat the price either. Well worth the investment. I've purchased other products from OMT and have never been disappointed. Their stuff is typically a cut above their competition. Someone at OMT is obviously paying attention and working to build their brand.

The quality seems good for the money. Our techs are skeptical but real quiet when asked how well they work. They are always looking for ways to say they are not a quality part yet we have not had any that have failed.They are sharp and work like they should.

Esto fue ordenado para usar para reparar los hilos en un fjange de escape Ford serie fe que encontré cuando se utiliza este kit que la broca era aguda y verdadera. El grifo también era afilado y cortar hilos muy suaves, por supuesto, el instalador no hay nada realmente especial en un instalador y la herramienta de freno de apagado era un mejor ajuste que mucho que he utilizado en el pasado. Yo calificaría esto como un producto bueno o mejor y este es el segundo que he pedido también he pedido un M8x1.25. y también tuvo muy buen éxito con él que he utilizado ahora por tercera vez.

This OMT Helicoil thread repair kit was exactly what I needed for a repair where a larger bolt was not an option. I used it on my nail gun, where I needed to restore the original thread size instead of drilling out for a bigger fastener.The process was straightforward — I was able to tap the hole and install the Helicoil insert, and it worked out great. I added some blue thread locker to help keep everything secure, and the repair has held up well.This fit perfectly. Being made of stainless. It’ll be stronger than it was before. The original threads were made of magnesium.This kit saved the day and was worth every penny. Instead of replacing the tool or trying to modify it with a larger bolt, I was able to restore it back to working condition. A great option to have on hand for repairs …

Funcionó genial. Ya vengo.

¡Buen kit! Sólo se utilizó el grifo, después de modificarlo para estar más cerca de un toque inferior hasta ahora. Funcionó bien para lo que necesitaba y las dimensiones parecen ser las mismas que el grifo de la marca Helicoil.Mirando el helicoil, para mí parecen ser alambre ligeramente más delgado que los Helicoil genuinos. Aunque aún no los he medido.Desde que compré esto principalmente para el grifo estoy muy contento con este kit. También actualizaré esta revisión una vez que se tomen medidas en helicoils o si encuentro problemas con el resto del kit.Cambié mi valoración a 5stars.Agregué una imagen del grifo que modifiqué.También midí el diámetro del alambre de helicoils suministrado y también el diámetro del alambre de una marca de helicoil helicoil y hay menos de.0005” diferencia.

Fácil de usar buen kit.

I don't normally (ever) write reviews, but I took a chance on the less expensive option, and it turned out well. I'm also going to write a review I wish I had come across when I was first discovering Helicoils and Time-serts. Fair warning: It will be long.tl;dr: this kit worked great on aluminum, but don't rush or force it!I'm a weekend warrior-type mechanic. I work on my dirt bike mainly, and have put in several Helicoils/Time-serts over the years but am by no means a professional. This task is conceptually scary, especially on engine blocks and especially the first time. But it's really pretty straightforward.The kitComes in a solid box for long term storage. Instructions a very basic. Pieces all seem like quality to me. Drill bit worked great and looked basically perfect after I used …
