V-COIL Thread Repair Kit M48 x 5.0 – 1.5D | Stainless Steel Wire Inserts DIN 8140

V-COIL Thread Repair Kit M 48 x 5.0 – 1.5D

With the V-COIL Thread Repair Kit M48 x 5.0 – 1.5D you can easily restore worn or stripped threads and create durable, load-bearing new threads. This all-in-one kit provides the tools you need for reliable thread reinforcement in materials with low shear strength — ideal for maintenance, assembly, and small-scale production.

Applications & Benefits

  • Repair worn, damaged or stripped internal threads
  • Strengthen threads in soft metals and low-shear materials
  • Recover and reuse parts instead of replacing them
  • Create new threads with high durability and accuracy
  • Perfect for workshops, maintenance teams, and installers
  • Stainless steel wire inserts, DIN 8140 Type S, ISO 2 (6H)

Key Advantages:

  • Improved load capacity and thread performance after repair
  • Corrosion and heat resistant stainless steel inserts
  • Manual operation – no power tools required
  • Reliable and long-lasting repair solution
  • Delivered in a durable metal storage case

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Prepare: Drill out the damaged thread to the STI core diameter, chamfer lightly and clean the hole.
  2. Tap: Cut the new STI thread using the HSS-G hand tap M48 × 5.0. Apply cutting oil.
  3. Insert: Screw in the wire insert with the V-COIL inserting tool until flush with the surface.
  4. Break Tang: Remove the driving tang using a tang break-off tool.
  5. Inspect: Check the new thread using a matching screw or gauge.
