Built from steel, it handles UNS thread sizes up to 1\/2-13 and 1\/2-20, covering two of the most common coarse- and fine-pitch fastener standards in general industrial and mechanical repair work. The tool is manually operated, requiring no power source or specialized equipment. It is used by maintenance technicians, machinists, and trade professionals who need to install thread inserts accurately without stressing the surrounding material or the insert itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool is suited for hand installation of threaded inserts in metal, composite, or other engineered substrates where thread repair or thread reinforcement is the goal.
