> Has anyone tried using a thread locker on a Helicoil insert?
You mean like Loctite? I always do. Just a drop on the outside of the
insert, near the tip, before screwing it into place. Give it a little time
to set before breaking the tang and flushing the hole with solvent, then use
a little anti-seize on the bolt.
