That was informative. But, do the inserts need to be the same length as the hole or the bolt used in the fixture? It would seem that the steel insert could be shorter than the actual bolt to allow the same insert to be used for a variety of bolt hole lengths/depths. Just as long as the insert can take the necessary torque to hold the bolt in place. Am I correct with this assumption or must I match the insert length exactly with the bolt length?

PATC; your assumption is correct- you can use shorter inserts, especially for non-critical areas such as drains, manifolds, pumps and brackets.
