Screw extractor

Hand Tool


A screw extractor is a tool for removing broken or seized screws. There are two types: one has a spiral flute structure, commonly called an easy out after the trademarked name EZ-Out; the other has a straight flute structure.Screw (and bolt) extractors are intentionally made of hard, brittle steel, and, if too much torque is applied, can break off inside the screw that is trying to be removed. Since the extractor is an extremely hard material, and a typical home shop drill bit will not be able to drill into it, a larger element of difficulty is added to the original screw extraction project. One way to avoid this added difficulty is to drill the hole completely through the screw or bolt (if there is access to the back). That way if it breaks a punch can be used to drive the easy out of the screw or bolt.
