Used your method this afternoon jikwan and it worked.
It put a lovely thread in my almost threadless salmon brush, tightens up a treat now ;D

good work john
i should say from the videos ive seen-
screw the partialy heated metal male into a femail brush
then get a cheap gas torch -heat up the male metal thread whilst its still in the
femail brush
this shouold melt plastic around the hot metal
voila! 100% perfect thread
this is theory which is well grounded - but i havnt tried it
all i done is heat metal male an screwit quick into plas brush

The simple way to do it and it takes 10 mins is to superglue the angle adapter into the brush,that`s what i do and it works.

An adapter only costs a few quid and when the brush is dead just cut through the thread with a hacksaw and pull out the adapter and start again.

It`s easier to have an angle adapter for each brush unless using a gooseneck as some adapters don`t tighten properly on the brush,it`s easier to just take the whole thing off and screw a new brush on with adapter i find.

well yes thats right
the fault with my system is you must have a metal male thread to make
the perfect new thread in the brush

Its not a fault, its taps and dies. You cannot drill holes without a bit and you cannot create a thread without a "tap"
 
Worked for me yesterday. I made a mess of the first attempt by trying to over screw the metal thread or "Tap" into the plastic and on close inspection there was no thread. I thought oh well thats it  :-[

But then I re heated it up again, screwed it in and cooled it off under a tap. Result perfect female thread to fit the angle adapter into. I guess its just a new procedure that you have to learn. It works and I will use it again. Good tip Jikwan  ;)
