One suggestion is to use a Key-locking thread insert. These have a much larger OD.

Specs. Are:
9/16" x 12 od thread
1/2" long (through bore)
3/8" X 16 id thread
Black Finish Steel

They are available from Mc Master Carr. Tel. 562-692-5911
NOte; Mcmaster Carr usually sells to other companies but will sell to the general public.

Insert part: # 90245A034
Insert cost: $1.67 each

Installation Tool: # 92100A717
Tool Cost: $10.80

Good Luck
