So my aluminum calipers have stripped threads and i was looking into inserting a steel helicoil to repair and prevent from stripping threads in the future.  
My question is, does anyone on here know where i can find a metric helicoil (or equivalent) thread repair kit, in or near toronto area. The sizes that i need are either M12x1.5 or M12x1.75.

Any help is appreciated.  
Thanks
