Worked like a charm!
There is an interesting story to go with why I had to buy these.I was out in the shop tapping a hole in my CNC machine for a coolant splash shield. The tap was going it nice and smooth, then all of a sudden the tap snapped off. Just the tip of the tap was sticking out, nothing really substantial to grab a hold of to back it out. Well after three hours of carefully drilling between the flutes of the tap and ever carefully enlarging the hole, I got the broken tap out. Well now I had this large and odd shaped hole to deal with.

Product Description
E-Z LOK threaded inserts for metal provide an easy to use solution for repairing or reinforcing threaded holes in metal. Ideal for use in metals like aluminum and cast iron, E-Z LOK threaded inserts are screw machined out of solid steel for greater strength and superior pull out resistance. Standard external threads permit the use of standard drills and taps for installation. Once the hole is prepared, E-Z LOKs are threaded into the hole like an ordinary fastener using a screwdriver, bolt and jam nut, or optional E-Z LOK drive tool. E-Z LOKs are self locking and will not back out or vibrate loose. A preapplied adhesive activates upon installation and bonds to virtually all metals. Fastener-ready in minutes, the adhesive seals against liquids and gases to pressures of 6,000 psi. when fully cured (72 hours). Top to learn more
