We wanted to sell as broard a range as possible without making choices complicated for our customers whilst shopping on the Glasses4Less website. Once again we turned to Hilco Europe for our optical solutions. The Plastic Temple Tips are available in three of the most popular core sizes, 1.6mm, 1.4mm & 1.1mm for ultra thin sides, often found on titanium rimless frames.

Keeping things simple we have also opted for the most popular colours, Black, Brown, Clear & Tortoise. We believe we now have the makings of a comprehensive collection of frame parts available for the consumer to buy on-line and don’t forget to visit our Downloadable Forms & Documents section for simple instructions on carrying out simple spectacle repairs using your newly purchased spare parts.

Tap 'n' Lok Locking Repair Screws

Top Tip No. 3 ~ Are you tired of constant trips to the opticians for replacement screws that keep falling out? Glasses4Less has the answer, Hilco Tap ‘n’ Lok® Repair Screws! The repair screws are made of stainless steel and have specially designed threading that cuts new threads into damaged hinges and closing barrels and ½ joints. These screws also have Tight Bond® coating that locks the screw into place so it won’t come out unless you take it out!

1. Choose the Head size and Diameter of the screw you need.

2. Insert the screw providing moderate torque to cut new threads

3. Here’s the best bit! Simply snap off the excess with needle nose pliers, yes, you read it correctly. Simply rock and snap, Do NOT use cutters, then re-torque for maximum bond.

The screw snaps ever time completely flush for a professional, neat repair.  Finding, cutting, trimming and filing replacement screws used to be a nightmare here in the lab, but these are so easy. I swear by them and the repair kits we now sell on-line save inventories of literally thousands of screws. Offering screw selections to customers was an impossibility but now its a snip thanks to Hilco Tap ‘n’ Lok® Repair Screws.
