How many life cycles does the locking Clinsert have?

This is depending on the screw and how much locking torque is required for your application.

However, as a rule of thumb, Locking Clinserts should have 15 cycles for the more critical applications.

Standard applications probably much more.

In order to prevent galling, there is a molycote surface applied in the Locking Clinserts.

Though in case the molycote is worn off after a couple of cycles, a steel screw with whatever plating will be better than a stainless steel screw.

Stainless steel screw in a stainless steel insert might start galling.
