Thread Saver is an innovative tool range for repairing damaged axle threads and wheel studs, 100% manufactured in the EU by Silbertool Solutions.

Thread repair tools have been in the market for many years, however tools like Thread Cutting Dies and other products remove material during the process and weaken the thread.

Thread Saver is a precision-engineered tool designed to reform threads instead of cutting, allowing for efficient repair without losing any material during the process. By retaining the material, the thread maintains its strength and can withstand a consistent load capacity after restoration.

Thread Saver has been rigorously tested, and The Material Testing Institute Hannover (MPA) has proven that threads repaired with Thread Saver were able to withstand the same static and dynamic loads as a new undamaged thread. Moreover, they even had a higher fatigue endurance limit.

Thread Saver also allows for the workshop to become more efficient, with savings in time and money. The initial cost when purchasing Thread Saver is paid back quickly by removing the need to send axles away for repair and studs being replaced, where as time is saved by not having to strip down the hub, with stud repairs in as little as 31 seconds.

Thread Saver comes in kit form, complete with the Thread Saver XR-120 for axles (with 1.5mm and 1.5mm LH, 2.0mm and 12 TPI roller sets), and the X-Nut XL for use on wheel studs.

Application Instructions

4 – Verify the Repair: Once applied, check the repaired thread with a gauge to ensure it meets the required specifications and functions correctly.

Benefits

  • Cost-Effective Repairs: Save money by fully restoring damaged threads instead of replacing expensive components.
  • Timesaving: Quickly and efficiently restore thread integrity, reducing downtime and increasing productivity.
  • Extended Component Life: Maintain and extend the life of threaded parts, ensuring ongoing performance and reliability.
  • Enhanced Safety: Secure, properly repaired threads help prevent accidents and equipment failure. After the repair, the thread is as resilient as a new thread
