as long as there is enough meat to go to the next size,.....yes. the thread inserts o.d will be the next size up the i.d is....for instance....

if its a 6-32 set screw, the helicoil tap is a size equivalent to a #8 screw
its designated as a 6-32 STI tap but its major diameter is the same as a #8 or .160 inches.

what size is the set screw now?
