Flattening threads with a hammer forces material into the valleys between the threads making the bolt useless, using a dye sure doesn’t fix the peaks, but it fixes the valleys and that’s all that honestly matters

Dumb question how do you pick the correct die for the bolt you need to repair

[leeh]

Yup - the Lang thread repair it (and similar) is fantastic, and doesn't leave you with WEAK threads (which is why using die is bad)

My phone has gone from listing to what I’m doing to watching because I literally just got done working on beat threads. Someone grabbed them w vice grips. I used a small triangle file and went slow and eventually taking my time. 3 bmx axles worth 50$ a pop that were giving to me thought to be trash. Iv got lots of practice from destroying threads as a kid tho lol
