About this item:

• Size 2 Screw Extractor + LH Stub Drill
• Chrome alloy spiral screw extractor.
• Coarse-pitched tapered screw thread.

• Typically the required screw extractor will be approx. 2/3 the diameter of the fixing you are extracting.
• Use a centre punch to mark the centre of the fixing before drilling to prevent the drill bit wandering.
• Select a drill bit that is suitable for drilling into the specific material – typically HSS or HSS-Co5. Ideally the drill should be Left Hand” which will prevent further tightening of the fixing during drilling.

• Lightly tap screw extractor into hole and turn anti-clockwise with a tap wrench or spanner.
