Thread Repair – The Smarter Alternative to Helicoil Thread Repair
The HTS-2000 second-generation brazing rod is perfect for thread repair. Looking
for a Helicoil thread repair alternative? Look no further. All you need to do is
take our industrial-strength brazing rod, fill a hole with the brazing rod material
and slip a hot steel bolt in there. Let the steel bolt cool, back it out and watch
as new threads are produced.
We know that sinking feeling when you’ve tightened a bolt as far as possible and
you feel the wrench spinning loosely. Yep, you have stripped the threads. But with
the HTS-2000 brazing rod, thread repair is a matter of minutes.
This high-strength brazing rod is erosion-resistant, three times stronger and more
flexible than other first generation rods. Little wonder then that thread repair
done with our product is stronger even than the original material.
What’s more, when compared with Helicoil, our HTS-2000 is easier to use and has far-reaching
automotive, military, aerospace and industrial application. Plus, unlike Helicoil,
there are no taps, inserts, gages and tang break-off tools to worry about at all.
All you will need is an oversized drill to drill the hole.
No need to place inserts into the hole. Just use a torch and drop in our advanced
brazing rod material into the hole. Bring the temperature of the steel bolt up to
400 degrees Celsius or above and drop the bolt into the hole. Give the metal about
15-30 minutes to cool off. To finish, simply use a wrench and back out the steel
bolt from the hole. That’s how you repair a thread faster and stronger than a Helicoil
thread repair.
The HTS-2000 high-tech brazing rod doesn’t need any flux, ends up tougher than the
base metal and melts 260 degrees Celsius below aluminium. You won’t be needing any
welding machine. Just a butane, propane, mapp or oxy-acetylene torch will be enough.
All in all, you don’t have to be a professional to use this second-generation brazing
rod.
Wheel Repair
Wheel Repair for Aluminium & Steel
Wheel repair is simple with the HTS-2000 and HTS-528 hi-tech brazing rods. Wheel
repair for cars, trucks, buses, trailers and any other kind of aluminium or steel
wheels can be fixed quickly, easily and permanently.
For automobile enthusiasts, having large alloy wheels can improve performance and
give a more sporting look to a vehicle. Carmakers more recently have begun to respond
to consumer desire to have a more sporting look come standard on many vehicles such
as family sedans, compact cars, minivans and even station wagons and have been equipping
such vehicles with large-diameter alloy wheels.
Over time, a vehicle’s workload, speed and road conditions can cause extremely high
cyclical stresses at some points on the wheel. The points most affected are the ventilation
holes and the disk attachment holes, the flange, plus the edge of the rim. Cracks,
scrapes, bends, pits and dings may necessitate quality wheel repair.
Replacement of these alloy wheels by the dealer or performance shops can be an expensive
ordeal. In response, many niche wheel repair shops have sprung up that will repair
a wheel back to factory specs for much less than the replacement costs. Many of these wheel
repair shops have turned to our industrial strength second-generation brazing rods
for quality repair work.
For aluminium wheel repair, the HTS-2000 is the brazing rod of choice by many professionals. Our
product has more tensile strength, elongation, a lower melting temperature and is
more efficient at penetrating past impurities than any other product on the market.
Our no flux brazing rod provides a stronger weld than the surrounding base metal
and no welding machine is needed, only a heat source such as propane, butane, mapp,
or an oxy-acetylene torch. Wheel repairs can’t get any easier than with the HTS-2000.
For steel wheel repair, the HTS-528 is the brazing rod of choice. This product has
flux built right in it and can repair cast iron, steel, copper, bronze, nickel, and
brass and is excellent in joining dissimilar metals. When a customer presents you
with a steel wheel that is no longer made, but in need of wheel repair, our high-end
brazing product has saved many shop owners from turning clients away. No matter whether
your wheels are steel or aluminium, our wheel repair products get the job done quickly
and efficiently and with a durability that is stronger than any other product on
the market.

Boat Repairs
Aluminium Boat Repair
Aluminium boat repair is made easy with the HTS-2000 second-generation brazing rod.
Many people buy aluminium boats because aluminium is light, fast, flexible and seaworthy.
As with any kind of boat, sometimes boat repair is necessary. Hull damage to an aluminium
boat can occur from abrupt groundings, collision with other objects or just wear
and tear over time.
Aluminium boat repair is much easier than boats made with steel or fiberglass hulls.
Aluminium is light, strong, corrosion-resistant, non-sparking and can be fixed with
an HTS-2000 brazing rod without a welding machine.
Pitting, cracks and crevice corrosion are three of the drawbacks of any aluminium
boat over the long haul. Sometimes aluminium boats will develop small leaks and need
repairs. The HTS-2000 is a no-flux brazing rod and all that is needed besides the
brazing rod is a heat source (propane or mapp gas), a turbo tip, or oxy-acetylene.
Since the melting point is 260*C lower than the surface of an aluminium boat, many
repairs can be made quickly and easily and even holes can be filled because of the
rod’s anti-drip properties.
Boat repair can be accomplished even by those with no experience.
In addition to boat repair, other boat-related repair can also be conducted quickly
and easily as well. For instance, repair to a boat engine or engine housing, fuel
tanks or even the boat trailer is a snap with our products.
Besides boat repair, the HTS-2000 can also repair engine blocks, radiators, fuel
tanks, air conditioners, latches, brackets, rivets and many more aluminium surfaces
and objects.
So, if you have an aluminium boat and are in need of a quick and easy method for
boat repair, look no further than our industrial strength, second-generation line
of boat repair products. You’ll be amazed at how easy boat repair really is.
