Ratings & Reviews for CRAFTSMAN 5 -Pack Steel 5-in Screw extractor set

great for simple stuff.

I haven't extracted many bolts but the one I used with this set made me understand the concept of bolt extraction. Logically, the force required to remove the bolt has to be less than the force the extractor snaps at, in my case the latter was greater resulting in a broken extractor. This set will work good so long as the bolt is not super tight and the smaller the extractor used the less tight the bolt has to be. The twisting torque used to remove a super tight bolt is too much for the small bi...

Screw Extractor

Awesome tool to use For automotive car and other stuff.

Broke while using just like others said

I wanted these to work, I had hoped they woukd work, but alas they did not. Broke at the tip leaving the screw and tip unaccesible. Well guess I wasted $10.00

TRASH

Absolute trash. Brake way too easily. I have used easy outs before, these are garbage. Buy anything else.

Terrible extractors

Broke way too easily. I use extractors a lot (a few different kinds) in air craft maintenance and have never had a problem but these ones are made with such cheap metal that 2 of them literally just from using them how they were intended to be used, they sheared right off as I was trying to turn them in the fastener with a crescent wrench.

Easy out slowly

Excellent results with removing stripped screw on motorcycle master cylinder cover. IMPORTANT: follow the directions and do it SLOWLY and carefully!

worked like a champ

It extracted a cam bearing cap bolt from the head of my engine first try best 9 bucks spent.

Works very well

These ez outs are well made and did the trick for me with no problem at all.

Screw extractors

They work as designed. A great tool to remove screws.

Sizes of the tools

The listed sizes refer to the head of the bolt or screw you may need to remove NOT the size of shaft needing extracted.by the tools themselves. Buyer beware these are small.

Wasn’t able to get the broken bolt out. Looks like I get to drill

Low quality product, did bot work

This is a low quality product. On the first attemp to remove a screw, the bit broke as soon as it grabbed the stripped screw head. Bought a different brand that comes with a reverse drill bit and it worked great, and no damage to the bit. I do not recommend the Crafstman product. “Grab” something else.

Why I Don’t Care If One Breaks!!!!

First off extractors are going to break I never had any that didn’t. Your twisting hardened steel which doesn’t want to be twisted. Hardens steel is brittle but it must be hardens to bite into the bolt. Second if you don’t have the proper tool to hold one you’ll probably break it straight off. That said I used one to extract about 10 bolts on a motorcycle I’m restoring. Then it broke, bummer. Took the broken bits put them back in the case went to Lowe’s and they gave me a new set.

Small, complete, inexpensive

Needed an easy-out for a broken screw. Borrowed a 6 piece (container plus 5 tools) Craftsman set from a friend, liked it so much I bought one for my tool kit. The range of sizes was perfect, from 1/8" to 3/4" screws/studs and the size range marked clearly on the package for both metric and SAE. Instructions on the packaging are clear and easy.
