Got a situation where I have one sheet metal panel held to a frame by 1/4" bolts. Another panel has 3/8" bolts holding it to its frame.
Some of the threaded keeper holes are worn out. Either boogered threads or no threads.
What is the best fix for this problem?
Sounds like maybe I should drill the bad holes on out to next std larger size bolt and tap 'em out. Is this best?
If so, would someone please check their charts and see what size drill bit I need for:
1/4" tap3/8" tap
1/2" tap5/16" is machine screw vice bolt, is it not? If I'm wrong on that one, may as well send the drill bit size along for a 5/16" tap, too, please.
