Heli-coil 1227-02 Thread Insert Extracting Tool Size 2

Product Description

The HELI-COIL 1227-02 is a thread insert extracting tool designed to remove tanged helical coil inserts from tapped holes without damaging the parent material or the surrounding threads. Used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals, this tool engages the insert tang to back the insert out cleanly. It is sized for nominal diameter 2 (M2.2 mm) inserts, making it the correct extraction tool for fine-threaded applications in that size range. At 0.33 pounds, the tool is lightweight and easy to handle during close-tolerance work.

This extracting tool is intended for use wherever tanged HELI-COIL style thread inserts have been installed and need to be removed - whether during rework, part salvage, or assembly correction. Typical applications include aerospace component repair, automotive engine work, industrial machinery maintenance, and any precision assembly environment where threaded insert removal must be performed cleanly. It is a hand tool used at the bench or in the field.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by machinists and maintenance technicians performing thread insert extraction. Before beginning, ensure the fastener is fully removed and the bore is accessible. Apply the tool to the insert tang and rotate counterclockwise to back the insert out of the tapped hole. Do not apply excessive force, as this may shear the tang or distort the insert coil.
