Review on πŸ”§ AB Tools-Neilsen M12 x 1.25mm Helicoil Thread/Tap Repair Cutter Kit (15pc Set) - Fixing Damaged Threads by Kevin Singh

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Heli-Coil is not good for tools and equipment

I bought this because I needed to fix a thread and couldn't justify the cost of a real $60+ heli-coil kit. This kit uses an all-in-one installation tool that is less than ideal in diameter. So if you are not very careful the insert will jump over the threads and become unusable. I destroyed three stakes before I got a usable rig. It will do the job but you have to be very careful when installing the inserts...

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Some flaws
