Reusing Threaded Inserts for Anchorage

[RDR89]

Hi all, I have a precast equipment foundation pad that the vendor wants to use threaded inserts in for their equipment anchors. Now they're asking if they can use threaded eyebolts in the inserts to lift the slab into place. 4 pick points at the same 4 anchor locations. The equipment is ~3000lb max and the pad is ~5000lb. Have y'all ever reused threaded inserts before? Aside from potential thread stripping during lifting (which they are aware they cannot reuse the inserts if that occurs), is there anything else I need to look for or does this seem generally okay to do?

I have no problem with the reuse so long as the inserts work as anchorage in general.
