Michael,

I am not sure of the thread size of the agraffes you used, but the simplest
solution would be to use an agraffe with the next larger thread size.  If
that's not possible, there is a product called a "HeliCoil" which is, simply,
a thread insert.  It usually comes in a kit form (many times including the
drill bit) and is available at most auto supply stores.  It's commonly used
for spark plugs and the such, so there will be no strength issue.
 Installation is quick and very simple (about 10 - 15 minutes).

Hope this helps!!
