Chiudere la filettatura

Never heard of "closing a thread". Here's the context:

Chiudere la filettatura M8 con una vite M8x20 (C).

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Not really, I'm searching around, and I notice filettatura is actually a thread. What it could be is a female threaded hole. So I'll keep my suggestion above.
Mario Freitas Apr 1, 2014:
So the filettatura could be fillets (fillet welding), and this could mean to fill-in, to seal or close the gaps or clearances in the fillets. Just an idea.
Daniel Gold (asker) Apr 1, 2014:
Yes it is about welding Thanks.
Mario Freitas Apr 1, 2014:
Is this about welding Filettatura could have a specific meaning if this is about welding.
