While the kit contains all the necessary tools, detailed step-by-step instructions are typically found in the product manual or can be referenced online for best practices in thread repair.
The thread inserts are typically made of stainless steel to provide strength and resistance to corrosion.
Ensure the correct size tap was used and the hole was drilled to the proper depth and diameter. Clean the tap and the hole.
Ensure the lug is properly seated in the slot of the breaking tool. Apply firm, steady pressure. If stubborn, a small punch might be needed carefully.
Verify that the correct size insert for the tapped hole was used. Ensure the insert was fully seated before breaking the lug.
Use cutting fluid and drill at a consistent speed. Do not force the drill bit; retract periodically to clear chips.
