Default Re: Broken stud

M,M,M, My first question would be what is the overall length of the new stud in comparison to the others? The number of threads on the stud can vary from one supplier to the next. The real concern is how far does the new stud rise above the head in comparison to the rest? If it is just a few threads too high then Tom’s remark about using a bottoming tap is right on the mark.
