Check compatibility

Heli-Coil 5521-5 uses a wire insert for 5/16-18. Match the 18-TPI pitch rather than selecting by the shared 5/16-inch diameter.

Questions before ordering

How do I tell if the 5/16-inch fastener is coarse?

Measure the pitch and confirm 18 TPI. The nominal 5/16-inch size alone also describes the separate 5/16-24 fine thread.
