oftentimes someone will use a drill size larger than specified or they may intermix threads such as standard or metric. ive never had a properly installed helicoil fail before in aluminum, cast iron, or steel. maybe if its really screwed up i could have a machinist make a sleeve with threads on the outside and threads on the inside to match my bolt , i could have the machinist drill, tap, and install this sleeve for me. i certainly dont want the person who screwed up the helicoil to touch the job again.
