This insert can be installed quickly by using simple hand tools (less than 3 seconds) and requires only blind side access. It features an extra large blind side bearing area after installation with higher pull out and torque-to-turn resistance with less radial loading of holes in brittle materials reducing the risk of cracking and de-lamination of composites. This insert has up to twice the grip range of standard blind inserts enabling a designer to reduce the size or number of fasteners in an assembly.
