Nutsert Tool needed
« on: March 28, 2012, 09:32:59 AM »
Anybody have a nutsert tool they would care to lend/rent/sell. I am installing 3/8" thread steel nutserts. I tried the bolt/oversized nut method and it is not working well.

Cheers,
Cris

Haha no worries, at my old job i was putting 100's of those into truckbeds and cargovan floors a day.
They are an absolute nightmare if you over tighten them, so be careful
