> 24 hourI have to say, I was skeptical but this tool really got me out of a bind! I was rebuilding a rearend on a car and somewhere along the line the threads by the hubs were damaged. I could not get the nut to start and it was clear to see the malformed threads. After going over the threads a few times with this bit in a Dremel, the nut went right on. Saved me a ton of rework and a trip to the machine shop - or having to purchase a massive die. The price is a no-brainer, I highly recommend.

> 24 hourIts very rare these days that things actually work, and this thing worked. Saved me $985!. We have a firetruck and one of the hose reels threads had corroded to the point of no return. The replacement cost was extremely expensive as the thread is attached to one piece and can not be replaced. I gave this thing a try as a hail-mary and it actually worked. Half of the threads were on the backside that I couldnt see so I just followed the front threads and prayed that i wouldnt jump over a thread. Followed it all the way back around and kept going. Used a little Brakleen to clean off the grit and the coupler fit right on first time around. I still cant believe it.

> 24 hourI bought this to clean up the threads on a part where the threads were distorted by welding. This tool cleaned them up nicely in a matter of minutes. I also used it to clean up the rusty threads on our main drain clean-out fitting which was pretty messed up after nearly fifty years. Fifteen minutes later the threads on the drain and cap were cleaned up and the cap securely screwed on. I would suggest when working on heavily damaged threads that you stop occasionally to flush the rust or metal particles out of the threads. And no matter what, flush them out when you are done.

> 24 hourThe result isnt as pretty as using a tap or die to repair threads but it works surprisingly well and is much less expensive than buying costly tools you will probably never use again.

> 24 hourI bought it to use in my shop in place of a thread file. Its smaller than I expected but thats a good thing. Has been useful and effective.

> 24 hourI purchased this tool after watching a review of a similar product on YouTube. This one is very similar if not the exact product. Works great with a high rpm impact drill. Also it does take a little getting use to at first, my suggestion is lock down whatever your working on and use two hands to control the direction of the drill as well as the recoil of the spinning bit. Also go with the direction of the drill while using. LIFE SAVER!!!
