The GEDORE Thread Reset Tool, No. KL-0173-612, is designed to repair wheel studs safely and chip free. The compact tool can be used universally on wheel bolts with M12 x 1.5 and M14 x 1.5. According to the company, repairs are done in just 30 seconds and will not weaken the thread. The thread becomes chipless by rolling (forming, pressing, embossing) back to its original geometry. No material is removed and the strength of the wheel bolts is fully retained. Use with a standard hex socket with reversible ratchet.
