Thanks Simon, I wasn't aware frown2

My mate is the machinist so I'll let him know.

He's keen to put a thread on our insert but personally I don't think it's necessary, my suggestion was to machine the thread out of the spinner then press the chilled insert into the warmed spinner to create an interference fit, this before Tig brazing it to the inner lip of the spinner.

I still think this will be more than strong enough given the arrangement we're creating is just to secure the spare wheel.
