To permit higher stresses on studs and bolts that are set in aluminum castings, it is common
practice to install inserts of a stronger metal into which the studs or bolts are threaded.
Helical-coil and screw thread inserts are designated to perform this function. The AVDS-1790
family of engines incorporates helical-coil inserts in many locations as original equipment. If
the hole in which the original insert is installed becomes oversize, a threaded insert may be
used in its place to allow the original size fastener to be used.
