Techs receive two rethread kits in one — an external stud repair set and an internal bolt tap rethread kit
Chicago—LTI Tools, a Milton Industries Company, has introduced the new 10-piece Wheel Hub Master Rethread Kit for damaged studs and bolts. This time-saving tool set allows technicians to quickly repair damaged wheel threading on a variety of vehicles. Techs receive two rethread kits in one — an external stud repair set and an internal bolt tap rethread kit.
The Wheel Rethread Master Set includes four unique split dies for stud repairs covering more than 90 percent of domestic and import vehicles, including light trucks. Die sizes consist of M14 x 2.0, M14x 1.5, M12 x 1.25, and M12 x 1.5.
The kit also contains replacement O-rings for the split dies as well as a 2-pin socket adapter and a handy thread gauge. The thread gauge allows the technician to quickly and accurately identify the exact die size to use for the rethread repair. Additionally, this new kit includes four bolt tap thread chasers for import car mounting bolts, import and domestic hex, and even chrome encapsulated fasteners.
“Wheel mounting fasteners become corroded regardless of where the vehicle is driven. They can easily become damaged during a brake job or rotor replacement, especially with unlike materials used in the manufacturing of today’s high-end wheels,” said Milton Specialty Tool Group General Manager Jeffrey Del Rossa. “The new LT922 Master Wheel Rethread kit is a must-have, staple item for any tech’s tool box for cleaning, repairing, and lubricating wheel fasteners.”
