Hinge screw hole repair tees. 50-pack

Hinge screw hole repair tees. 50-pack.

Stripped screw hole? Tap in one of these wood tees. This size is good for most hinge screws. You can use wood glue or super glue if you want a tighter repair.

They also work when you need to move a screw hole right beside an old one. Whittle them down for smaller screw holes.

To snap the tee off cleanly, tap a chisel on one side, then the other. Leave the chisel in place and hit the tee on the head. It will usually snap off close to flush.

Predrill the hole and reinstall the screw.

Most door guys and finish carpenters keep these handy in the shop or truck.
