Damaged Screw Extractor Set,Christmas Stocking Stuffers for Adults Men Him

Anyone who owns Price-Pfister sinks knows that over the years they have deliberately used softer screws to hold the washer in the cartridge so that instead of a 40¢ washer the entire $6.99+ cartridge must be replaced. It’s gotten worse. My bathroom sink has had one replacement of the hot water cartridge several years ago and recently developed the tiniest of leaks. I popped the cap of the facet handle—the handle, not the cartridge—put a Phillips screwdriver into a virgin screw, pushed down and turned, and stripped the soft head. I made valiant efforts to turn it, all in vain. Baking soda and super-glue did not make a new head. So I ordered this set from Amazon for $7.73, but then went to Lowe’s and bought their “SpeedOut Steel Double-Ended 2-in Screw extractor set $17.98 4.5 Stars.” I carefully researched and followed all the DIY instructions to use it right and did get it right. Sprayed first with a silicone lubricant. Knew exactly the screw size and the right extractor to match. Moved progressively up the thickness ladder of extractors and always drilled slowly counter-clockwise to keep maximum traction. Nothing worked. I even used a Porter-Cable metal cutter to cut a new straight deep slot for a big screwdriver—in vain. I decided to cut the handle in half, and wanting to know how much room there was to spare I decided to remove the cold water handle. To my shock, despite it having a virgin screw head, being locked with a plumber’s wrench at the base, my spraying with Silicone lube, and pressing down with all my weight that screw too was completely locked into place. So I called a plumber to replace the entire sink and made an appointment three days in future. Then this little kit from Amazon arrived. I thought it was pointless even to try, but I did. The handle was already lubed. I used the #3, drilled all the way down, then reversed. Up it came, easy-peezy, just like that. Why? This less expensive kit has deeper-cut less densely spiraled cutting edges so they bit into and gripped the softer screw metal and pulled it right out. Despite the lower 4.3 rating this screw extractor is a very good buy.

I picked up this Damaged Screw Extractor Set as a gift for a friend who’s always working on projects, and honestly, it’s become one of those unexpectedly useful tools in my own workshop too. The set includes a good range of sizes, so whether I’m pulling out a tiny screw that’s stripped or a larger one that’s been rounded off, there’s a bit here that works. Right out of the box, the bits feel solid and well made. They’re not the flimsy sort you get in cheap knockoff kits. I’ve already used them on a couple of tough jobs — a stripped screw head on an old cabinet hinge and a rusted screw in a deck board — and both came out cleanly with minimal effort. What I like most is that the extractors grip without shredding the metal, so I don’t have to go chasing broken bits inside the wood or metal. One thing to call out is that you will need a decent drill and a bit of patience to use them effectively. They aren’t magic, but they’re way better than trying to wrestle a rounded screw with pliers. For anyone who does any DIY, woodworking, or mechanical work, this set is exactly the kind of tool you don’t realize you need until you absolutely do. In short, it was a great gift idea and I’d buy it again for myself. Solid performance, good range of sizes, and a real help when getting out damaged screws.

I purchased a Makita table saw on market place for a fraction of its value. When I got home I noticed that the blade was loose and I could not tighten it because the screw heads were stripped on the table insert and no way to tighten the blade. I purchased this set of screw extractors and within a few minutes of receipt, I had the damaged screws out. The $ 50 saw is now worth around $400.

Handy Tool Set That Gets the Job Done This screw extractor set is a useful addition to any toolbox. It worked well on several stripped and damaged screws that would have been very difficult to remove otherwise. The bits feel durable, and the set is easy to use with a standard drill. The compact design makes it convenient to store, and it can save a lot of time and frustration when dealing with stubborn screws and bolts. It's also a practical gift idea for anyone who enjoys DIY projects or home repairs. Overall, a helpful tool set that performs well and is worth having on hand for those situations when regular tools just aren't enough.

This thing is a lifesaver. We had a stripped a screw in our bathroom and we thought we'd have to bust through everything, but came across this kit. It100% solved the problem. Best $9 you'll ever spend.

I am an experienced machinist and know the feed and speeds to drill out a fastener head. I used a variable speed, torque clutch, reversable drill motor. The rounded fastener was a two inch #12 wood screw in a stud. The alloy appears to be stainless steel. I tried first the #0 extractor. The drill end with left hand edges (reverse), hardly penetrated. I varied feed (hard) and speed (400 rpm) in reverse and did not bottom the bit as required. Furthermore, the screw seem to work harden as if the bit was dull. I could see a sharp edge but no joy. I tried the larger #1, and no joy. Could not drill deep enough for the conical extractor to grip. Wondering why this design is so highly rated?

This screw extractor set has been very useful. The pieces feel strong and durable, and the set is easy to use when dealing with damaged or stripped screws that are difficult to remove with regular tools. I also like the compact case because it keeps everything organized and easy to carry. It’s a practical addition to my toolbox and I’m very satisfied with the quality.

Great product! Works wonders on screws that are rusted over or won't budge with a conventional drill/screwdriver set.... I had several screws that were severely rusted over on one of my saltwater tanks hinges that broke off and needing to be replaced....These screw extractors did the job in less that 5 mins... It's super easy even someone with no experience can handle it... Great gift idea, cheap enough and durable to last years! My only complaint is the box is a pain to open... So glad I found these extractors!!!

My drill is 20$ and it still worked!! I had 2 screws: The first one had a stripped head and needed a bigger size to get out (always start small and go higher as needed!!!) The second one was headless and deep and needed a small size to get out This extractor resolved both issues. 10/10 LOVE this extractor.

I had two severely stripped screws stuck in the clamp of a baby gate securing a glass railing. After several failed attempts with other tools, I bought this screw extractor as a last resort, honestly, I was skeptical it would work. To my surprise, it performed flawlessly. I carefully followed the instructions and advice from other reviewers. First, I used the burnishing end of the bit to carve a clean groove into the stripped screw. Then, with steady pressure and patience, I switched to the extractor side—and both screws came out cleanly and completely. This tool saved me from what could have been a much bigger hassle. It turned a frustrating situation into a satisfying fix. I highly recommend this to anyone dealing with stripped or damaged screws. It works exactly as promised.

Espero me sea de ayuda para cuando se barra un tornillo

Doet wat het beloofd.

Kit was a lot smaller than I expected but given that they are drill bits, the size can be understood. Husband was very happy with item but hasn't used them yet so can't speak of the quality.
