Sure, I don't know yet what kind of tool but I will keep posting here, need to be really thin to attach the internal diamenter and transfer heat. Those soldering iron are really cheap (5-10 bucks) and usefull for some applications in 3d printing area.
These brass inserts are much easier to find in Bangood and Aliexpress, in the begging of the year I found just one or two reseller, nowadays there are much more. They are avaiable for M3, M4 and M5 screws.
In USA there is a brand that produce these brass inserts, named Yardley Products: https://www.yardleyproducts.com/
I hope it helps someone ?

In my opinion, this is nicer than using nuts and also easier to design because you just need a hole.
