Alden 4507P Grabit Micro Broken Bolt Extractor 4 Piece Kit - Small Bolt and Screw Remover - Ideal for PC and Mac Repair - Made in The USA

Worked great and did the job quickly. Worth the money

I stripped the head of a 6.x32 Allen/hex screw on a pistol sight and had no way of removing it. To make matters worse, the screw was put in with blue Loctite. I bought this product as a last resort before admitting defeat and taking the slide to the gunsmith. I really didn't think it was going to work. Long story short? It was effortless. I've used easy outs but it's been years so I watched the video on their website as a refresher and let her rip. It took 2 minutes and that sucker was out. I used a small 12V drill so I didn't overpower it. Drill...remove...done.

These saved me hundreds of dollars. I made a mistake, and red loctited some very small set screws into a *very* expensive piece of equipment. When I went to change the component, the T10 head completely stripped, yes, I applied the proper amount of heat to loosen the loctite. These were easy to use, and after drilling, heated up the parts, very carefully and slowly reversed the bits into the drill holes, and the screws came out. Not sure how much more of a positive review I can write for them. Well worth it. Especially the smallest bit, which perfectly suited the small set screws I was removing. The bit was very sharp, and took good cuts with minimal down pressure.

Updated again - I never received the promised replacement bit. So have to go with my original assessment. The bit broke while attempting to extract a very soft screw. I can't recommend the product. While I was initially impressed with their quick reply and willingness to replace the broken bit, that was a month ago and the replacement has not arrived. Updated Review: The seller replied very quickly and is sending a replacement for the broken bit. Based on that and success using the other bits on a different screw, I'm upgrading to 4 stars for the quick customer service and the fact the bit worked on another screw without issue. Tried to use it to remove a pickguard screw on a guitar. These are not hard metal, not stainless, they strip very easily. In this case though, the cutting end of the smallest bit broke very quickly and without actually accomplishing the task. I understand that stuff like that happens, so may adjust this pending the sellers response. Also - the tip shearing off like that result in the guitar being damaged - fortunately, the damaged area is under the pickguard as it skipped off to the side of the screw in that direction instead of out into the visible part of the guitar, otherwise I'd be even more furious.

I had a mobile vacuum cleaner that I had to replace a part but one of its screws was stripped. I had tried several suggestions I found online with no success then found these and tried it. The #1 micro head didn't do anything. the cutting head seemed to be taking metal out but the extractor end just spun. I then tried the #2 head which seemed large but I had nothing to lose. The cutting head definitely this time was removing more metal and when I used the extractor head, the screw just spun out. I'm wondering if the originally stripped head just prevented the cutting head from getting down far enough to prep the surface for the extractor? Moot point since the next size up worked perfectly. This is a great product for small screws. The cutting/extracting end of the #1 micro is no more than 1/16th of an inch (eye balling it using a tape measure) and is for #5 and #6 bolts.

I got some thread wrapped around a part in my Pfaff 130. Machine was jammed, so ok take it apart EXCEPT one screw was petty stripped and being soft stripped more, I tried the rubber band, etc and no luck. Then stepped away for a year. Order smaller collets for Dremel to hold smaller drills and finally hit on the right search term to find these. The Dremel doesn’t have a reverse and the grabits close to too big, so I used the Dremel with a tiny bit to drill hole then took the Grabit drill side in hand drill and it caught and the screw came out. Totally worth it to me to save the treads on the machine and avoid a more complex teardown. I also mess with pc, games systems, etc so am sure I will used again. One thing I don’t like is the card in the storage box just has barcode on back instead of directions so I cut directions off packaging, storage box is cheap but at least it has one

This solved extracting a very small 6/34 screws in seconds after trying for an hour with a cheap chinese alternative. Cheap in price and quality. So if you need tiny extractors, this one is very much worth the money.

Used the smallest extractor to remove a stripped laptop screw. 1. Its hard to get a straight hole drilled down into the screw. The one I tried was a little offset. 2. They talk about drilling down until you hit the major diameter of the bit. Translated this means drill down until the cutting blade of the bit is mostly in the hole. To be honest on a laptop screw you don't have much to work with some mine was more like 3/4 of the way in. 3. Once in that far there is enough hole for the extractor to bite and reverse the bit back out of the hole. Its a very small bit so caution is needed not to put too much torque on the drill side or extractor side. Its a shame more places are not using torx bits on their laptop screws but the other problem is they are loctite bluing them in place instead of using purple which would be more than fine for a screw this small.
