Case Saver specs PLEASE!!

Post by MCboston »

I have been searching the web for case saverthreaded insert specs for a pulled cylinder stud repair. A lot of people sell them, but no one lists any specs other than ID10mm OD14mm.
Is the inside M10x1.5? Which drill bit and tap do I use? How long are they?
I actually bought some EZ-LOC inserts but rather not use this as the length is only 14mm and I rather have 20mm of thread.
Please help, thanks. :D

Whoever sells case savers should have that information. I assume case savers come in a packet? The information would be on the pack, surely?
If GSPD was still here he could tell you who made the packaging they come in! Oh well.

When you do find out, don't forget this.

Jeff, FYI the link doesn't work. I got "404 Not Found" when I tried it.

Thanks Ken, I copied and pasted Frog's link in Garnets post in the 'pulled cylinder stud' thread.
It works there?

Anyhowz, it's the best 'how to' case saver installation instruction post I've seen.

I cut and pasted from the address bar once the link was opened. If it's abbreviated within the thread, cut and paste from there seems to leave some out.

Try sending Frog a pmail.

He's a nice guy and I'm sure he knows the info you are after.

OK, so it looks like the outside threads of the case saver are M14x2.
