Screw-Grip Threaded Inserts + Installation Kit
A pre-packaged kit containing brass threaded inserts (M6/M8 sizes), a specialized drill-and-tap tool, and step-by-step visual guides for repairing stripped holes in melamine/chipboard. The insert creates a new, permanent threaded core that accepts standard screws. Unlike toothpicks or larger screws, the insert restores the original hole diameter and holds indefinitely.

Stripped screw holes in cheap furniture make repairs impossible without replacing entire piecesDIY enthusiasts and furniture owners face a critical problem when screws pull away from melamine and chipboard materials—the soft, low-density wood fibers don't hold threads, making furniture unstable or unusable. Current solutions (toothpicks, larger screws, wood filler) are temporary band-aids that fail repeatedly, forcing people to either live with broken furniture or buy expensive replacements. This is especially painful for budget-conscious consumers who buy flat-pack furniture but lack reliable repair methods.
