What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this bolt extractor set for successfully removing stripped or broken bolts where other methods fail, calling it a game-changer for DIY repairs. Most highlight the reverse-drill mechanism, multiple sizes covering common bolts, and M2 tool steel construction as key strengths, with many reporting smooth, reliable results that save hours of labor. However, a notable group experienced premature bit breakage during use, with extractors snapping under torque even when instructions were followed carefully. Despite these failures, most customers consider the set a worthwhile addition to any toolbox.

Don't ever buy this trash!

Garbage. The 2 smaller ones shattered on first use. Didn't extract anything.

Broke 1.5 getting one bolt out and now the remainder all broke on the second. I’d recommend only if the bolt is not rusted in place and is only stripped.

Great Bolt Extractor Set!

Would Recommend

This product works really well on extracting bolts – it took me about one minute to extract a stripped bolt! I tested this tool out by driving a 8mm – 1.25 x 25mm Philips drive machine bolt into a 2x4. I then drilled out the head to represent it being stripped. I popped one of the Speed Out bits into my drill, and it drilled out a pocket into the head of the bolt. This took the longest time since there was a quite a bit of material to remove to clear the way for the tap. Once the tap grabbed h...

4 piece bolt extractor set.

Would Recommend

The 4 piece screw extractor set is great for stripped bolts. Simple design, drill out and set screw extractor for removing stripped bolts. Set is more for small to medium bolts which is nice. Seems to be made with high quality steel and durable looking. I do recommend this set for small to medium applications. This is definitely a plus for my tools collection.

Easy to use

Would Recommend

I was using a 21 volt Dewalt cordless drill to use these bolt extractors. You place it on the drill like you would any other drill bit. Make sure it's tight. When using it against a bolt you have to make sure the drill is set on reverse. The 1st bolt i tried I went full speed and it seemed to struggle some but it eventually got the bolt out. I definitely recommend when you are in need of getting stripped out bolts. Never knew this was a thing.

Faster than the old method

Would Recommend

Most commonly I run into bolts failing to extract when performing vehicle repair. The head usually snaps off when trying to remove the bolt. The damage is usually done while installing the bolt. The idea behind this extractor set is that you can use a drill to remove the bolt, rather than the hand turned bolt extractors that I had lots of previous experience with. The first step is to drill a hole in the bolt head. Any bolt can break, but it's usually an exhaust manifold or water pump bolt. In c...

Useful tool

Would Recommend

The bolt extractor set came with 4 bits of different sizes suitable for extracting stripped bolts of sizes 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch (6-12mm). The drill bits are made of steel and are compatible with any standard drill. The extractor bits came in a box that holds all the bits in place safely.

Exceeded expectations

Would Recommend

Ordered this to see if it works as well as it says and it exceeded expectations. Used on a new bolt, was hoping we would have a non critical one break, used a lock nut a tight as we could put it on and bolt was out in less than 30 seconds of work. Drilled a pilot hole, used burnish end, flipped bit and threads caught and pull bolt right out. Having used extractors before, I didn’t expect it to go that easy. Comes in a little plastic case to store, and lose, at the same time

Not used, but ready for when needed.

Would Recommend

I had stripped a screw and to make things worse, I was having a hard time reaching it. I was completely screwed because I could not get it out, nor grab it with pliers, and could not cut it off. There was no room to get into where this screw was. I was giving up hope and about to use a sledgehammer. As a last resort I tried the Speedout Pro. Initially I had no luck and more curses were heard. I finally realized I was not following directions and using the Screw gun the wrong direction (duh...

It works but is it worth it?

Would Recommend

This bolt remover seems a bit more advanced than the screw removers we have used. It drills a hole (in reverse) on a bolt, then forward you screw the same tip to pull in reverse a third time. While it works, is it worth it? As a home owner where you have to do this once in a while it is, or if you have to remove a bolt from a piece of equipment that matters. It takes a bit of time and some playing around. The con: it takes time, if you are in construction you might find better tools. The pro: it...

Does the job

Would Recommend

I I had my doubts that these would be durable enough to back out a bolt where the head broke off. This bolt extractor has a solid build, and the design is a little different from others I’ve used. The inner piece moves up and down the threaded shaft, which actually helps it grip better once it bites. It handled the rusted, broken bolt on my mower with no problem at all. You can really feel the difference in material quality, and I love the included case.

For when the wrench and socket set won't work

Would Recommend

The bolt extractor came in handy in removing a stubborn bolt in our fence. It was simple to use, but slightly different from the regular screw extractor. I just kept going in reverse and it suddenly grabbed the bolt and started to pull it out! Made simple work for what a socket or wrench couldn't do. The only down side for me was when I tried to remove the extractor bit, the tip broke off, making this a one time use item this time. But the set comes with 3 other bits, so it is still a great barg...
