Spark Plug Thread Repair Kit M14x1.25 – HSS Tap with 4 Threaded Inserts
Brief Overview
This spark plug thread repair kit addresses one of the most common maintenance challenges in engine rebuilds and cylinder head servicing: restoring stripped or damaged spark plug threads. The system combines a precision HSS cutting tap with four threaded steel inserts of varying depths, giving technicians the flexibility to accommodate different damage depths in a single kit. Whether you're restoring a classic engine or managing high-volume spark plug replacements, this is an essential solution. Pair this core kit with complete helicoil insertion systems for shops requiring full thread installation tooling.
Key Features
