The "rounded-off" nut or bolt is the scourge of the mechanical workshop. Particularly on exhaust components, a corroded and seized nut or bolt defies all attempts to remove it, and if using a spanner or ill-fitting socket, the flats of the fastener soon get rounded-off, making things worse. What to do?
Well, you could get out the angle grinder or better still, reach for this ingenious new Damaged Nut/Bolt Extractor Set. These specially hardened caps fit over the rounded off fixing and allows a standard 12 point socket or ring spanner to be used to remove the rounded off fastener. The extractor cap grips and moulds itself to the rounded-off fastener and keeps on gripping until it loosens off.
