5-Pc Easy-Out Screw Extractor Set – Removes Stripped Bolts
5-Piece Easy-Out Screw Extractor Set
Stripped or stuck fasteners are no match for this professional-grade 5-piece screw extractor set. Made from tough high-speed steel (HSS), each extractor features straight-groove flutes that bite firmly into damaged screw heads, letting you back them out quickly and cleanly — no more frustration on the job site or in the workshop.
Why You'll Love This Set
- Wide size coverage: Five pieces handle metric studs from 3/16" to 5/8", covering the vast majority of fastener sizes you'll encounter.
- Works on virtually any head type: Cross-head screws, hex socket bolts, external hex bolts, flat-head screws — if the diameter fits, this set works.
- Straight-groove design: After drilling a pilot hole, the extractor clamps firmly inside the screw, making removal smooth and controlled.
- Square drive tail: The square-shaped shank fits standard tap handles and manual wrenches, giving you maximum torque and control when backing out stubborn fasteners.
- High-speed steel construction: Hardened HSS holds up to repeated use and maintains its bite through tough extractions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of fasteners can this screw extractor set remove?
A: This 5-piece screw extractor set is compatible with cross-head screws, inner hex (socket) screws, outer hex bolts, and flat-head screws — as long as the screw diameter falls within the 3/16" to 5/8" range covered by the five extractors.
Q: Do I need a drill to use these screw extractors?
A: Yes. You first drill a pilot hole into the center of the damaged or stripped fastener using the recommended drill bit size for each extractor (see the size guide above). Once the pilot hole is drilled, insert the extractor and use a tap handle or wrench on the square-drive tail to back the screw out.
Q: What makes high-speed steel (HSS) a good material for screw extractors?
A: High-speed steel is hardened to maintain its cutting edge under high stress and repeated use. Its toughness allows it to grip and remove fasteners that have been corroded, over-torqued, or otherwise damaged without the extractor itself breaking or dulling quickly.
Q: Will the square drive tail fit my existing tools?
A: Yes. The square-drive tail is designed to fit standard tap handles and manual wrenches, which are common in most toolboxes. This gives you firm, controlled torque when extracting stubborn fasteners.
