Default Ever strip a screw?

Im thinking about ordering this, Grabit, seems like it would work in removing stripped screws and broken bolts. Its similar to the crafstman type, but we all know those dont work for ****. Apparently, you drill it, then use the extractor side to remove the screw.

Never used it, but wanted it for a while - thankfully I just haven't, needed it yet.

I dunno about the rest, but from simply looking at that tool, I can't see how it wouldn't work, you know what I mean? Even snapping a bolt-head off doesn't seem as if it would be an issue.

Get it and let us know!

well I have used products like that before, and they do work well under certain situations. You will note not a one of them tried to remove a grade 8 rusted bolt from a 83 chevy pickup. For 99.99% of what we would ever use them for they are great though. A totally worthwhile $20.

lol, i ordered kaboom, and NO it does not dissolve limescale in front of you. if you can soak items, it is good, but for anything in the shower or tub that you would spray on and it will drip, doesnt work for crap, you are better off using lime away.

of course, we could also choose from Zorbeez, Vidala Slicer, or the rub-N-peel gloves, and last but not least, HERCULES HOOKS!
