Tork Craft NR5012 Thread Repair Kit 14pc M12 X 1.75 X 1.5D Internal Thread Carded

At a Glance: M12 x 1.75mm internal thread repair kit with 1.5D stainless steel inserts for 18mm deep thread repairs.

The Tork Craft NR5012 Thread Repair Kit is a practical, workshop-ready solution for restoring damaged, stripped or worn M12 x 1.75mm internal threads. When a threaded hole has been damaged by over-tightening, corrosion, wear or repeated bolt removal, this kit helps bring the fixing point back to life with a strong stainless steel insert.

Instead of scrapping the part or oversizing the thread, this repair kit allows the original thread size to be restored. It includes the essential tools required for the repair process, including the correct HSS drill, HSS STI tap, installation tool, break tool and thread inserts. The 1.5D insert length gives a repaired thread length of approximately 18mm, making it ideal for many automotive, engineering, maintenance and workshop applications.

Standout feature: Restore damaged M12 internal threads permanently

This kit is designed to repair stripped or damaged internal threads by installing a stainless steel thread insert into the newly tapped hole. Once installed correctly, the insert recreates the original M12 x 1.75mm thread and provides a durable new thread surface for the bolt.

Product highlights

M12 x 1.75mm thread repair Designed for repairing damaged internal metric threads in the M12 x 1.75mm size.
1.5D insert length Provides an installed insert length of approximately 18mm for a strong thread repair.
Complete repair kit Includes the drill, STI tap, installation tool, break tool and stainless steel inserts required for the job.
HSS cutting tools Supplied with a high-speed steel drill and high-speed steel tap for cutting the repair thread.
Stainless steel inserts Thread inserts provide a durable internal thread surface after installation.
Workshop-friendly repair Ideal for maintenance, repair, automotive, engineering and general mechanical work.

Extra Information

The thread size is M12 x 1.75mm, where M12 is the metric thread diameter and 1.75mm is the thread pitch.
The 1.5D insert length means the installed insert length is 1.5 times the thread diameter. For M12, this is approximately 18mm.
This kit is used for repairing internal threads, not for cutting external threads on bolts or rods.
The repaired thread is intended to accept an M12 x 1.75mm bolt after the insert has been correctly installed.
Replacement inserts are available for the NR5012 kit in different lengths for ongoing repairs.

Pro Tips

Use a tap wrench for the tapping stage rather than forcing the tap with a power tool. A slow, straight and controlled tap gives a much better repair.
Use suitable cutting fluid when drilling and tapping metal to improve finish, reduce heat and protect the cutting edges.
Keep the drill square to the damaged hole. A crooked drilled hole will result in a crooked repaired thread.
Clean all swarf and chips from the hole before installing the insert. Dirt or loose chips can prevent the insert from seating properly.
Before starting, confirm that there is enough hole depth for the 18mm insert length and the bolt being used.

How to Use

Confirm that the damaged thread is M12 x 1.75mm and that the 1.5D insert length is suitable for the repair depth.
Secure the workpiece properly so it cannot move while drilling or tapping.
Drill out the damaged thread using the supplied Ø12.4mm HSS drill bit.
Tap the drilled hole using the supplied STI M12 x 1.75 HSS tap. Use cutting fluid and keep the tap straight.
Clean the newly tapped hole thoroughly to remove swarf, oil residue and loose material.
Fit the stainless steel insert onto the installation tool and wind it into the tapped hole until it sits correctly below or level with the surface as required.
Use the supplied break tool to break off the insert tang.
Check the repaired thread by carefully fitting the correct M12 x 1.75mm bolt by hand before final assembly.

Features

Repairs internal threads Suitable for stripped, worn, corroded or over-torqued M12 x 1.75mm internal threads.
HSS drill and tap included The kit includes the correct drill size and STI tap needed to prepare the hole for the insert.
Stainless steel thread inserts Inserts are designed to provide a reliable replacement thread inside the repaired hole.

Benefits

Saves damaged components: Helps avoid replacing expensive parts where only the internal thread has failed.
Restores the original thread size: The repaired hole accepts the original M12 x 1.75mm bolt size after installation.
Strong and durable repair: The stainless steel insert creates a tough thread surface for future use.
Convenient all-in-one kit: The key repair tools and inserts are supplied together in one carded kit.
Great for workshop repairs: Useful for automotive, engineering, maintenance, DIY and general repair work.

Application

Repairing stripped or damaged M12 x 1.75mm internal threads.
Restoring threaded holes damaged by over-tightening or cross-threading.
Automotive repairs where threaded mounting holes need to be restored.
Engineering, fabrication, maintenance and workshop repair work.
Repairs in mild steel, aluminium and other suitable materials when used correctly.

Safety

Wear eye protection when drilling, tapping and breaking off the insert tang.
Clamp or secure the workpiece properly before drilling or tapping.
Use the correct drill size supplied with the kit and keep the drill straight to the hole.
Do not force the tap. Turn slowly and back off regularly to break chips and reduce tap breakage risk.
Use suitable cutting fluid when working in metal, unless the material or application requires otherwise.
Keep hands clear of sharp swarf, drill edges, tap flutes and the repaired hole.
Make sure the insert tang has been removed before fitting the bolt through the repaired thread.
Always use the correct tool for the job and follow safe workshop practices.
