heli coils

(1/2) > >>

caesar:
Anyone know where i can get heli-coils "over the counter"? The threads on one of my rocker shaft studs have worn and i could do with re-tapping and threading the hole.

denviks:
i have a couple of sets here.i bought them from a local tool place..... any local tool place should have a kut kncoking about somewhere  :wink:

Sorry? . . . . but if the threads on the stud are worn then surely a new stud is whats needed.

If the thread in the hole is gone you should be able to get a 'coil' kit at any decent engineering tool suppliers. Usually come in sets with the appropriate tools. Doubt you will be able to buy 'just a couple'.

Failing that, find your nearest engine/transmission re-manufacturer, (usually plenty in yellow pages), and go begging  :wink:
