Engine builders have relied on mediocre thread inserts for far too long. Brands X, Y, and Z back out. They pull out. They wear out. They’re a pain to install. They require special, pricey tooling. That’s why we're excited to introduce RaceSerts. Here’s what you can expect from RaceSerts.

PERMANENCE
RaceSerts come with a LifeTime Warranty. The Warranty covers whatever part you repair, for the life of that part, whether it’s a block, a head, or a transmission: anything and everything. It’s a performance warranty, not just parts and materials.
No thread-wear. Ever.
No backing out. Ever.
No pulling out. Ever.


FAST, EASY INSTALL
1 minute or less with a hand ratchet
15 seconds or less with an impact
No special tooling needed


RaceSerts are self-tapping and self-aligning. That means they require no tap, and they go in straight and true.


Instructions:

  1. Drill out the damaged threads to make your pilot hole.
  2. Assemble the install bolt as shown. Apply tapping fluid to the RaceSert.
  3. Drop the RaceSert into the hole. Seat the RaceSert in the hole by firmly tapping the bolt all around its edges 4 or 5 times with a hammer.
  4. Turn in the RaceSert with a long-handled ratchet until the nut bottoms.***
  5. Secure the nut with an open-end wrench so it doesn’t move. Then back out the bolt.
  6. If the RaceSert isn’t quite flush with the surface, reinstall the bolt assembly and give it another turn or two. To avoid scoring the surface, don’t overturn.

***NOTE:  A faster alternative is to start the RaceSert with a ratchet - 3 or 4 turns – then finish the installation with a 3/8” drive impact driver.


Kit Includes :

  • 5 RaceSert Inserts
  • 1 S7 tool (steel hardened installer bolt with nut and washers)
