TIME-SERT® 1415N M14 x 1.5 Crankshaft Thread Repair Kit – 28mm Inserts
Genuine TIME-SERT® 1415N M14 x 1.5 crankshaft thread repair kit designed for permanent restoration of damaged or stripped M14 x 1.5 threads. Developed for crankshaft bolt thread repair applications, including suitable KIA applications, the complete professional system includes the specialist drill, counterbore, tap, tap guide, installation driver and five 28mm stainless steel solid-bushing inserts.
TIME-SERT® uses a thin-wall solid bushing design with a flanged collar for positive placement. During correct installation, the dedicated driver cold-rolls the specially designed lower internal threads, expanding the corresponding external threads into the parent material and mechanically locking the insert securely in position.

The stated 15.72mm outside diameter is approximate and is provided as a useful dimensional reference when checking available clearance and surrounding parent material.
Important – 15.72mm is the Insert Outside Diameter
The stated approx. 15.72mm measurement refers to the outside diameter of the TIME-SERT® insert.
It is provided for dimensional reference and must not be treated as the required drill diameter. The receiving hole must be prepared using the dedicated drill, counterbore and TIME-SERT® tap supplied with the 1415N installation kit.
TIME-SERT® Solid Bushing Technology
TIME-SERT® uses a precision solid bushing rather than a conventional wire-coil insert. The synchronised internal and external thread design allows the insert to maintain a relatively thin wall while restoring a solid M14 x 1.5 internal thread.
The flange at the top of the insert provides positive placement. When installed using the correct tooling, the flange seats against the correctly prepared counterbore and establishes the final installed position.
During the final installation stage, the dedicated driver passes through the specially designed lower internal threads and cold-rolls this section. This expands the corresponding external threads into the parent material and mechanically locks the insert in position.
Crankshaft Thread Repair
The TIME-SERT® 1415N is designed for suitable crankshaft applications requiring restoration of a damaged or stripped M14 x 1.5 internal thread.
The extended tooling supplied with the kit is designed to provide the access required for this type of repair, while the tap guide assists with maintaining correct alignment during thread preparation.
The kit is commonly associated with suitable KIA crankshaft repair applications. Always confirm the original thread specification, available repair depth and application requirements before machining.
Technical Notes
- Finished repaired thread: M14 x 1.5
- Insert length: 28mm
- Approximate insert outside diameter: 15.72mm
- Supplied with five stainless steel solid-bushing inserts
- Flanged design provides positive insert placement
- Mechanical locking takes place at the lower section of the insert during installation
- The dedicated TIME-SERT® tooling supplied with the kit must be used for correct installation
- Always verify available depth and surrounding material before beginning the repair
Please verify that the damaged original thread is M14 x 1.5 and that the supplied 28mm insert length is appropriate for the repair before using the kit.
The approximate 15.72mm measurement is the insert outside diameter only and must not be used to determine the required drill diameter.
Crankshaft and engine applications can vary by vehicle, engine and production specification. The reference to KIA applications should not be interpreted as confirmation that the kit fits every KIA engine or crankshaft.
Follow the complete TIME-SERT® installation procedure and use the supplied specialist tooling. Confirm available depth, alignment and surrounding parent material before drilling or cutting the component.
We kindly ask that all returned items are sent back unused, complete and in the same condition as supplied. Returns received used, installed, damaged, incomplete or otherwise in a different condition from when dispatched may be subject to an appropriate deduction from the refund to reflect any reduction in value, where permitted by eBay's policies and applicable consumer law.
Please confirm the thread size, insert length and application before using the drill, counterbore or tap, as tooling that has been used cannot be resold as new.
