RE-THREADERS
C.K Re-Threaders for Electrical Box Thread Repair
Shop C.K re-threaders at Order Electrical for a quick and practical way to restore damaged or obstructed threads during electrical installation and maintenance work.
Designed with electricians in mind, a re-threading tool can be used to clean and reform suitable existing threads where accessory fixing screws no longer engage correctly, helping avoid unnecessary replacement of an otherwise serviceable electrical box.
They are particularly useful when working with metal back boxes, socket boxes and switch boxes, where damaged or contaminated fixing threads can make it difficult to securely refit the wiring accessory.
C.K re-threaders are compact additions to an electrician's tool kit and can be particularly valuable during socket and switch replacements, rewires, refurbishment work and general electrical maintenance.
For common UK electrical accessory applications, M3.5 re-threading tools are associated with the fixing threads used for many socket and switch box screws. Always check the required thread size before using the tool.
A re-threader should be used to restore or clean a compatible existing thread rather than as a substitute for an appropriate repair where the threaded lug or back box itself is badly damaged.
Browse our C.K Re-Threaders below to find specialist thread repair tools for electrical back boxes, sockets, switches and everyday electrical installation work.
