EZ-LOK INSTALLATION GUIDEE-Z LOK external threads are standard size and pitch to permit use of standard drills and taps. Nospecial tap sizes or installation tools are required. E-Z LOK inserts will not back out or vibrate loose. Immediately upon installation, microencapsulated Loctite® begins to set and the newly installed insert can be fastened to within minutes. In addition, the adhesive seals against liquids and gasses to pressures of 6,000 psi, and bonds to virtually all metals.
