Stud-Lock Inserts

Simplify Casting Repairs by Eliminating Oversized Studs

Application: Gear box and pump castings Challenge A military parts rebuilder and refurbisher required a more reliable solution to repair and refurbish large pump and gearbox castings that utilize interference fit studs for assembly. Traditionally maintenance includes dis-assembly and cleaning of each casting followed by inspection for cracks and wear. All tapped holes are inspected and new interference fit studs installed. Each and every stud is inspected and must exhibit a specified torque range on installation. If the running torque is too low, a larger stud must be used in place of the original stud, creating additional stress in the parent material creating an inventory need for non-standard studs. Customer Requirements Consistent running torque from stud to stud No surface damage or imperfections Improved reliability and speed of maintenance and repair process are a high torque version of the Heli-Coil Screw-Lock insert and allow the use of standard studs in place of the typical oversize interference fit stud. This eliminates the need for multiple inventories of oversize studs to fit varied degrees of oversize holes. At the same time running torque from stud to stud is maintained to a closer range.

HeliCoil Stud-Lock Inserts

As shown in the Torque Comparison chart, Stud-Lock inserts offer more consistent torque when compared to interference fit studs. Heli-Coil Stud-Lock inserts offer several distinct advantages over both solid-bushing-type studs and interference-type studs. With Stud-Lock inserts, a lower-cost threaded rod can be used, resulting in a lower per piece cost. For purposes of identification, inserts for straight studs are dyed green and inserts for step studs are dyed lavender.
