Review on M12-1.50 Steelman Metric Split Die Thread Chaser: Repair Wheel Studs & Bolts Easily! by Brett Tierney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Saved me from replacing a Rear Wheel Hub

The last time the Dealership rotated the tires on my Ford Focus, one of the lug nuts was crossed threaded on the install. On the Ford Focus you can't replace the Stud, you have to replace the whole hub.I took the advice of another review and used the tool starting at the base of the stud with the tire removed, used an adjustable wrench, and slowly backed the nut off of the stud. Another pass later (just to make sure) and I was done. This tool saved me from replacing a whole hub. It's awesome.

Pros
  • The Steelman Metric Split Die Thread Chaser is designed to repair a wide range of wheel studs and bolts, making it a versatile tool for any mechanic or DIY enthusiast
Cons
  • Not suitable for use on plastic or polymeric materials
