Tapered Screw Extractor Set - Effortlessly Remove Damaged Screws
A stripped or broken screw can be a major headache, but a tapered screw extractor (also known as an "easy out") is the perfect solution. This tool set is designed to remove damaged screws with ease, saving you time and frustration.
How Tapered Screw Extractors Work
The process is simple:
- Drill a Pilot Hole: A pilot hole is drilled into the center of the stripped screw.
- Insert the Extractor: The extractor, with its left-hand (reverse) threads, is then inserted into the pilot hole.
- Turn and Extract: As you turn the extractor counter clockwise using a wrench or tap handle, the tapered shape and left-hand threads bite into the screw, providing the grip and leverage needed to remove it.
Key Features of This Set
- Tapered Design: The tapered ends of the extractors ensure a secure grip as they bite deeper into the damaged screw.
- Left-Hand Threads: The reverse threads provide maximum gripping power as you turn the extractor counter clockwise.
- Square Shafts: The square shafts allow for use with a wrench, giving you the leverage you need to remove stubborn screws.
- Comprehensive Set: This set includes 5 extractors in various sizes (3, 5, 6, 8, 9mm) or imperial sizes (1/8", 3/16", 15/16", 5/16") to handle a wide range of screw sizes.
