Alltools Geelong is your local Recoil thread repair specialist, stocking the full Recoil system of wire thread inserts and complete repair kits for trade and DIY customers across Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast. With 35 Recoil lines in store and online, our range covers metric repair kits, imperial repair kits, metric inserts and imperial inserts — everything you need to rebuild a stripped or worn thread to original specification.

Recoil thread repair kits include the correct STI insert tap, HSS drill, installation tool and tang break-off tool in a reusable case, so a damaged thread in aluminium, cast iron, magnesium or steel can be restored in minutes. Each pre-wound 304 stainless steel insert springs into the tapped hole and spreads fastener load, creating a thread that is stronger than the original. We carry both coarse and fine metric pitches and UNC and UNF imperial forms, with thread inserts also sold individually to refill an existing kit. Recoil is a favourite of mechanics and fabricators across Torquay, Ocean Grove and Greater Geelong, and our team can help you match the exact thread size and pitch to your fastener.

Visit our Geelong store at 124 Fyans Street, South Geelong for hands-on advice, or browse our Recoil range online with delivery across eastern and southern Australia. Trade accounts welcome.

Recoil FAQs

What is included in a Recoil thread repair kit?

Each kit contains the matching STI insert tap, an HSS drill, a pre-wound set of 304 stainless steel inserts, an installation tool and a tang break-off tool, all in a reusable case — everything needed to repair one thread size.

Are Recoil inserts stainless steel?

Yes. Recoil inserts are wound from 304 stainless steel wire with a diamond-shaped cross-section, which resists corrosion and locks into the tapped hole for a permanent, reusable thread.

Do you stock both metric and imperial Recoil?

We carry metric sizes in coarse and fine pitches, plus imperial UNC and UNF forms, as both complete kits and individual replacement inserts.

Is a Recoil thread stronger than the original?

A correctly installed Recoil insert spreads the fastener load over a larger area, so the repaired thread is typically stronger than the original thread cut directly into soft alloys.
