You need to follow certain rules in order to unscrew stuck fasteners quickly and efficiently. If the hole is larger than necessary, then due to the small thickness of the remaining wall and the use of the next size of the threaded extractor, the tool will jam and break. After that, you should insert an extractor of the required shape – conical or cylindrical, depending on the type of part that is stuck and broken in the object, and then part of this detail is quietly unscrewed. The process of twisting is reduced to the preliminary drilling of a small depression at the central part of the stuck element.
SCREW EXTRACTOR SET HOW TO
With the help of the tools in the set, you can simply hook the stuck item, and then unscrew it from there, but first, you need to know how to use a screw extractor.

The spiral extractors have a square shape, and the reverse drill bits are smooth. The square shanks’ sizes are ST-1, ST-2, ST-3, ST-4, ST-5, and ST-6. Both bits and extractors are made of extra hard cobalt that provides them with longevity and good resistance to the massive heat.Īll the items in the metal box have their sizes of EX-1, EX-2, EX-3, EX-4, EX-5 and recommended drill bit sizes of 0.078, 0.11, 0.16, 0.25, and 0.29 inches. The left-hand bits means to drill in reverse. The tools feature high gripping power, drilling deeply into the most stubborn fasteners. The Irwin screw extractor is a set of spiral flutes (reusable extractors and drill bits) for socket screws, broken and stripped fasteners, bolts, studs, and fittings. Sometimes they fail to remove too tight rounded nuts.It’s necessary to cut the extended threads on a bolt to get the extractor on the nut. The case has built-in sizes to identify the extractors’ sizes without looking at the tools. The sockets are packed in a heavy-duty yellow-colored case with a locking mechanism to keep it shut. They also work with oil pan rounded bolts and oil drain plugs. The units are compatible with wrenches, pliers, and vise grips, working with spline, Torx, hex, octagon bolts, brass plugs, and various soft-metal plugs. Both metric and SAE marks are onboard, featuring excellent accuracy.
SCREW EXTRACTOR SET PLUS
The sockets have various sizes from 0.31 to 0.75 inches plus two adapters of 0.25 and 0.37 inches. The black oxide surface adds durability and protection from corrosion.

Besides, they remove the bolt and, at the same time, leave the reusable socket in place. All the items feature good torque thanks to internal thread design, meaning their capability of withstanding high loads. The durable chrome-molybdenum steel set of sockets includes 13 pieces to get rid of rusted and damaged bolts.
