Re: LIDL deals this thursday
I want one of them detail sanders, those cheap ones put up with an amazing amount of abuse, I had a wickes one years ago and it had a very hard life and lasted about 5 years, for that price I'd have another.

Re: LIDL deals this thursday
Will a tap and die set push/ pull a snapped screw out?
Are they hard to use?

Re: LIDL deals this thursday
No a tap and die is for rethreading a stripped hole or threading a new one. You need a bolt extractor, which incidentally I've herd the lydl one is crap but I've never used one as I always drill out and retap.
No they are simple as a simpleton to use Last edited by Wideboy; 22-11-12 at 07:58 AM. |

Re: LIDL deals this thursday
Well one hole has a bolt stuck the other whole has lost most of its thread.
So with the holes that have lost thread, would this be ok to use on them? If so that's what I'm doing today

Re: LIDL deals this thursday
You can retap a stripped hole at the same size but its advised you bore the hole out 0.5mm - 1mm (depending on what bits you have) than it currently is, rethread it and buy a bigger bolt. If yiu retap the existing stripped thread it will be weak and most likely strip again or fail if its under load/stress.

Re: LIDL deals this thursday
Right, these holes are the pillion peg holes. So I need to drill it out? Then re thread it? Or could I not re thread it a bigger size using existing hole with out buying a metal drill bit and drilling whole. I really haven't done anything like this before
