I used that exact set a few days ago. I had to switch from the smallest extractor to the medium one. I think a difference in how I got them to work was that I was using an impact drill, and I had it go very slowly. I was also pressing very hard into the screw.

I have used this type of tool with great success which surprised me because the screw I wanted to remove was over torqued and threadlocked into place. There are 2 things you have to do for this to be successful. 1) when using the bit to drill out the screw head, use the bit the size smaller than the recommended one then use the bit the next size up when you attempt removal. 2) use hand tools only when using the removal end of the bit. Power tools have too much immediate torque.

@joeschmoe844 Жыл бұрын

I’ve had the speed out set for years. I’ve had about a 75% success rate with them. In some cases they will bite and the head of the screw will twist off. Typically rusted wood screws that have been in exterior wood for years.

@bubbalo3388 Жыл бұрын

@@homerthompson6028 make sure when drilling out the new hole on the first step to keep the drill straight and steady. If the bit moves around, then you will create too large of a hole for the extracting side of the bit. Also make sure you have tapped it deep enough so the coned end of the bit's sides make contact in the new tapped hole. Also you need to put some force behind the drill and push down on it when you start to extract. Use a drill that has variable speed and do it slowly. You use to much power and you will likely snap the bit. If you still have tried a few times already using the same bit and still can't get it to bite then the bit may have already worn down. Do you currently have a stripped screw? If so then there are alternative methods you can try. There are other extractors that have more aggressive bite to them that you use with a hammer that applies downward force enabling a better grip. If you have a stripped screw or bolt where it still has the head on then you can use a disc grinder and cut grooves that will fit a Phillips head or a flathead and then use an impact screwdriver (I don't mean an electric impact driver or hammer drill) to loosen the stuck fastener. The impact screwdriver twists slightly when smacked with a hammer and at the same time downward force is applied by the hammer striking thus providing a better bite and less chance if slipping and stripping the fastener. Also make sure you have the right size screwdriver. An ill fitting one will just strip again.

@bubbalo3388 Жыл бұрын

@@homerthompson6028 you just need to drill down as deep as possible so you can get as much of the extracting cone end in there to twist and grab onto the sides. The more you can get it there then the less chances of it slipping. But be careful to go so deep that you detach the head of the screw. Apply some force behind it during the "extraction part of the process" to help it dig in. Otherwise it will likely spin and strip. Other reasons this may not work is the screw is in there just to tight and made of too soft an alloy.

@johnprzybysz3845 11 ай бұрын

A couple of pro tips if I may. #1 use a regular drill bit to start with so you dont prematurely wear out the drill bit end. #2 ALWAYS go straight in, trying to remove on an angle well break your extractor 9 times out of 10. #3 make sure that you drill deep enough. If your hole is wider than the part of the extractor you have in the hole it will not grab. #4 there are less expensive brands that work just as good condition if not better.

I've used those to remove screws that were stuck in studs too, and my biggest take away was, if there's not adequate pressure being applied to the drill while turning the bit, the sharpest point of the edge can get caught in the wrong groove and break just like that, also if drill and bit are not completely level that could break it too!

You should have used a bit extender and come into the screw heads straight on. The bit may have snapped because it was angled, so as soon as it starts to turn your drill chuck needs to loop in a coned circle or it will stress the extractor greatly.

I was an aircraft mechanic and I have taken lots of stripped out screws out. The best way I found was to use a speed handle with a large knob on the top with a screw driver bit holder and lean hard against the screw and bump the handle to rotate the screw out. If that doesn't work drill the center of the screw with a drill bit the correct size for the extractor bit. Snap on makes an extractor set that looks like a bolt but the shaft has the extractor. Use the speed handle with a socket that the extractor fits in and slowly turn it counter clock wise while applying a lot of pressure to make sure it digs into the metal. Snap on also makes extractors that look like drill bits but you will need a special socket that it fits into to turn it with a speed handle or rachet.

I tried one of those on a crankshaft seal retainer bolt on an aircraft engine. I had to do it through one of the prop stud holes. When it snapped I had no choice but to drill out the extractor and try something else. It took 4.5 hours to drill out the extractor and burned up about 20 #30 cobalt drill bits. It was a different brand (Grabbit) but same tool. Once the extractor was removed I ended up drilling the hole oversize for a Helicoil. Worked perfect in the end. Moral for me was to not use those on anything without a second possible option. I invested in some Vampliers, too.

I use Irwin Brand and it works for me so well. I use Impact Driver with Power setting#1 or #2 but I have to fed off the trigger. When I'm using drill I use speed setting#1 the low Speed. I've been using mine for 3 years now and the tool can still extract stripped screws and small bolts.

That’s exactly what a friend of mine did, to remove a stripped cap head axle collet hex bolt on my expensive Mtn bike. We used the Irwin EZ Out with a T-Handle and some Kroil penetrating oil. Worked magic.

I had a set similar to this, different brand, that I purchased at Lowes. It was "guaranteed" to work. I had the same problem that you had with the smaller bits. I am working under a truck in a very confined space and still haven't been able to get it out. 😥

I think the reason it broke was because the angle you were on. Think about it. Once it turn 180 degrees it would have to be on a equal angle in the opposite direction. You know. Downward into the part.

If you have enough of the damaged screw sticking out, then use a set of locking pliers (a.k.a. "vise grips") to grab a hold and unscrew. It's a bit tedious, but it works most of the time.

I have a couple of "Easy-Outs" that I've had for years. I use them from time-to-time and, so far, they've been fine. Easy-Outs are longer extractor screws and drilling a hole in the broken screw or bolt is your problem. The Easy-Outs have square end for use with a spanner (not a drill) when extracting.

Gentlemen! It drives me crazy when I see you suffer while doing things "the hard way". "K.I.S.S." I have removed many stripped out screws WITH A RATCHET! Clean the head of the screw with a q-tip, to remove any grease or grime. Then, use crazy glue, epoxy, gorilla glue, or solder, to attatch a tiny hex nut onto the stripped screw's head. This gives the screw a "new head", which is now a hex nut. Now, it can be removed with a ratchet. Have fun. SAFETY FIRST!

Another way is to use a Dremel with a burr tool. Burr out or drill out the center to get some depth, then burr out a slot on one side of head and then another on the opposite side then use a straight edge screw driver to size to remove. 😂. Not only does it work, you can continue to use the screw in case you don’t have a new one. Unfortunately I have never had good luck with the kits. 😢

@robwebnoid5763 11 ай бұрын

I bought a no-name extractor like this a few years ago, as I had a similar situation, except the screw I was trying to remove had its whole head broken off. This was for a screw that holds the valve stem system for a shower. I drilled a hole & then tried it, but it did not work. I really only have a drill that is over 15 years old that runs on battery, but it seemed it did not have the power to remove the screw. And my much older drill from the 1970's that runs with power cord only rotated clockwise. To this day that broken screw is still there. We can afford to not remove it because our shower stall has 2 shower heads so we are only using the one shower head that works. But I will eventually try to get this repaired. And I was working on it without having had to turn the water off.
