Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The 3/8 inch hillman is almost an inch in length. This specialty tool made installing the threaded inserts a breeze without issues.

With a socket wrench and a bolt it's easy to put them in crooked. This tool keeps them square while driving and enables effortless driving in hardwoods of all types.



Cons

The blades on the tool are too narrow relative to the insert's slot. In hard oak it strips the slot off the brass insert about 30% of the time. The fit in the e-z knife is 10-24 is loose. It only contacts about half of the driving area on the inserts....  Read More

This thing is worthless. Would not buy again. Very unhappy. Not worth it.

Quality


Good quality and does exactly what it claims


Although only the ez lok numbers are mentioned i found this 5005 to work very well with the hellman 3021 3816 brass threaded insert


My impact drill with the 5005 can start up and finish the job outside of flush


My second concern was how to do that with the least amount of effort on my part

Shipping


Seems to be wearing out way fast but still works

Packaging/appearance


I even used my standard 12 drill bit for the holes instead of the 13mm size recommended with no problem whatsoever


This drive allowed me to drill the hole using a drill press and then swap in the the drive without removing the part from the drill press

Competitiveness


Works as intended and much better and reliable than trying to diy
