Colin,
I would use Loctite 638 retainer for the insert. Put the 638 on the insert, screw it in flush. Remove any excess. Then place a tube over the stud bigger than the 7/16" insert with washers and pull up with a 5/16" nut. This way the Loctite is filling the thread on the back flank and you have metal to metal on the thrust side.
