Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)These are nice. Note that the photo is from the "old style" box
(the new style box is three rows of extractors). Near as I can tell,
these are identical to the set sold by Snap-On for about $100.
The flutes are *sharp* (which is good to get a good grip without expanding
the hole). I did a quick test and a gentle tap with the end of a
screwdriver was all that was needed to get these to "grab".
Now, no extractor can remove a bolt that's so corroded that the head
shears off when you try to turn it, but for situations where the bolt
head "died" or broke off because you turned it too far, or for pipe
nipples and other tubes that have no exterior wrenching surface, these are the
perfect tool.
Note that these are relatively short, so if the bolt/nipple is more than
1/4" below the surface, these might be too short and you may need to use
a numbered spiral remover, but these have more grip because they have
many more splines than a spiral remover.
You can also use these to remove allen and Torx screws that have had their
sockets chewed away.
