TIME-SERT vs Helicoil – Which Is Better?

When comparing TIME-SERT® and Helicoil® thread repair systems, the key difference lies in their construction and performance. TIME-SERT® uses a solid bushing insert with a flanged collar for maximum strength and stability, while Helicoil® uses a wire-coil insert that can unwind or loosen under torque and heat. As a result, TIME-SERT® offers a stronger, more reliable, and permanent repair, making it the preferred choice for critical applications such as engine blocks, oil drain plugs, and aluminum housings.

Application and Instructions

Start by drilling out the damaged threads using the supplied drill bit. Next, counterbore the hole to create a seat for the insert flange. Tap new threads using the provided tap tool. Apply driver oil, then use the insertion tool to install the insert until it locks securely in place. As a result, you achieve a precise, flush, and permanent thread repair.
