Abstract
The invention relates to insertion tools. Insertion tools are known to be used to secure a threaded insert to a plate-like member, to receive a threaded stem or stud of another component that needs to be attached to the plate-like member. The object of the invention is to allow a male threaded stud to be attached to a plate-like member. The objective is met by a tool that comprises a pair of handles pivotally attached to each, a drawbar in engagement with one handle to the opposite side of the pivot to the hand grip, the drawbar extending out of the other handle to lie within a guide tube attached to the said other handle, an extension tube attached to the support tube, an extension piece to the drawbar having a threaded end section at one end to engage a threaded hole in the end of a drawbar and having a threaded bore at the opposite end to receive a threaded stem intended to be attached on or in a support.
