Description
Overview:
The Sealey TRM6 Thread Repair Kit (M6 x 1.0 mm) is a compact, workshop-ready set for restoring stripped or worn internal threads to a reliable M6 standard. Designed for soft metals such as aluminium, magnesium, and brass, it uses stainless-steel wire thread inserts to create hard-wearing, accurate threads that resist wear and pull-out. The kit includes a high-speed steel drill bit, M6 x 1.0 tap, insert installation tool, and a lug (tang) breaking tool, plus an assortment of insert lengths to suit different material thicknesses. Ideal for maintaining construction machinery, garden equipment, small engines, pumps, gear housings, and casings, it helps keep equipment in service and prevents costly component replacement. Suitable for workshop and on-site repairs using standard hand tools.

- Produces concentric, accurate threads for correct bolt alignment and torque retention.
- Straightforward to use with standard workshop tools; clear sizing simplifies setup and fitting.
- Reusable tooling with replenishable inserts for ongoing maintenance.
