I stripped the threads out of one of my EVE 280Ah terminals.
I decided to start a thread about Helicoils.
I ordered a kit that comes with a tap and install tool. There are a lot of different types and special tools but I am going to try the old standard with tang.
I will do some testing in scrap aluminum to be sure I can make it work. I have a bad cell to test on also.
I have installed helicoils before and they work very well. But I have never put one in such a shallow hole.
The ones I put in were bigger.
If I can't make it work, I'll try something else. Maybe JB Weld.
