What can be done about stripped threads??

[PinkEgoTUser]

I even bought 3 adapters (now, lost one) and they worked at first on my Kamry 101 and my MVP20W and now nothing stays in place unless it's a 510 connection. The tanks with the pin (name escapes me) won't screw in at all. Example my iClear30. Can't get it to work on anything and it's not that old, definitely well under a year old.

Is there anything I can do to get them to work? Im especially upset with my MVP20W, I only got it for xmas and can't get even an adapter to stay put. Not a happy camper. I don't like the iClear, I can't make the wicks, tried so many times. I just have to just push it down to vape with it. It's just the biggest one I have and no fundage to replace anything. Is there a fix? Thanks!

Hi Pink, I don't have the answer, but let's bump you up and hope someone else does...Good luck....

In my long experience with stripped threads the only answers are to fill the stripped threads with something and retap them or to insert a "helicoil" insert. or tap the threads out to a bigger size. None of these solutions are practical on an ecig. Sorry.

I don't think you can do anything much to fix the 510 threads. The ego threads you can wrap maybe with teflon tape.

Prevention is key.

If the ego threads work, there is an adapter to help get the 510 working. I'll look for it and post the link.
