You can easily deal with painted and rusted-over screws or bolts that are just broken if you have a screw extractor. Giving you just the right grip on a broken head, these extractors not only remove broken screws but can drill a hole that will allow you to pull them out. Just make sure that the extractor you choose has all these features. With each of the four bits, you get different widths that can handle a wide variety of bolt and screw sizes. This set is made with industrial-strength, high-quality steel that was created for use with a variable reversible drill. However, it is also effective when used with a ¼-inch hex screwdriver and can extract several types of fasteners including many tamper-resistant screws, Torx, Hex, Tri-Wing, slotted, and Phillips screws. It comes in four different sizes each suitable for screws and bolts of different sizes. And, they are sold both individually as well as in three different sets.
Removing a wide variety of stubborn fasteners, the OEM Tools Bolt Extractor Set comes with fastener sizes including 5/8, 9/16, ½, 7/16, and 3/8-inch. This set helps to take a difficult task and make it simple. Plus, you won’t be wasting money and time or damaging parts by using the wrong type of tools. If you are not familiar with Grabit or a screw extractor system, the Grabit is a two step process. First a user will use one side of the bit to drill a shallow hole into the head of the screw or bolt. Then the user flips the bit over and drills the screw out. The bit actually sits in the first hole and grips the side of the screw to extract it. Yes it is that simple. Just remember you are extracting a screw, so make sure your drill is in reverse when you use the system. Created with high-carbon steel, the Irwin Hanson Bolt Extractor Set is durable and uses reverse spiral flutes to bit down on bolts to get the best gripping power. This set is great when you are trying to break free painted or rusted over bolts or a bolt that has been rounded off. Yes, the Alden Pro Grabit bits can be reused. The exact number of times you can use one will depend on the types of screws you are extracting with it, the material you are extracting from, and so on. Are Grabit and Grabit Pro the Same Product? Since there isn’t a universal size, you want to make sure the screw size you are using is compatible with the application. Remember that there is a range of screw sizes that can be used in various applications. Some of these extractors were designed to work with any screw size while others were designed to only work with a specific screw size. So you need to know which type of screw you need to extract before you start.
Alden 8440P Grabit® Pro Broken Bolt & Damaged Screw Extractor 4 Piece Kit
Unless you work a lot with screws of the same sizes – and even then – I recommend you get the ProGrabit 4-Piece kit to have all bases covered. It will also often be cheaper than if you bought different sized bits individually.
Starting with the pros, it’s a tool that is very simple to use and that is made from high-quality double-tempered steel. As such, unlike some of the other similar tools, it’s more durable and will last through multiple extractions.Quality is one of the most important considerations when choosing a screw extractor. It’s important to look for an extractor that is made of steel. Keep in mind that not all screw extractors are made completely of carbon HSS steel, which is a special type of steel that is generally used in a drill bit allowing it to pierce through a heard object and make its way in. Since you may be dealing with damaged heads, you will want an extractor that has an excellent build quality that will be able to drill a hole into the damaged screw. Rust and Painted Screws The Alden Pro Grabit stripped screw extractor is easy to use. As mentioned in the review above, removing a screw with the tool is a two-step process. The Grabit Pro system is great. Very easy to work with and great results. While there were a couple times we couldn’t get the screw out, which was more due to user error, the screw extractor worked great. Most importantly it will save you a lot of frustration and aggravation, which you can save up for this year when the cubs let us down again. It’s also convenient to use since both of the steps – burnishing the damaged screw head and extracting the screw – can be taken care of with a single bit. Using the tool doesn’t require any grinding or center punching.
