The insert I used was 1/4-20 15/16 long - I did a test where I drilled the recommend hole and pressed in one insert into some maple and I moved over 3 inches and put some 5 minute epoxy in between and a light film on the knurl. I pressed this in and let it cure for 3 days. I inserted a 1/4-20 hex head bolt in 2" long and tightened the bolt down slowly. The insert held fairly well at first but eventually pulled right out. I moved over the in insert with the epoxy on it and I turned the bolt down and it started to get fairly stiff to turn. I kept turning and then I heard a pop and the thought that the insert came lose. No, it was the back side of the 1" maple creaking out as I screwed it down. The flat ended bolt split the maple about 3 inches before I saw any of the bolt. The insert is still in the board as strong as the day I put it in the male hole. There great insert and I feel that under the right circumstances and installation Technic will work very well in wood and not just plastic. Ten wahoo's the the folks who designed this insert. Great job! Review: Like a ... - ...
