I had to reposition my security camera. My husband put the screws in and completely stripped every single one out 🤦🏽 he bought this set for me and I had no idea how to use it. This was tremendously helpful. Thank you!
Yeah these things are a God send. I bought a second set because I’m paranoid I’ll wear them out and be without one when I need it. Glad it worked for you.
Have a Fisher and Paykel top loader gas dryer that was making a screeching noise due to a bad bearing. The M5 allen bolt on the inside of the drum was frozen and I ended up rounding it so that nothing would work to get it out. Went to Lowe's and bought a SpeedOut kit and ended up using the largest of the extractors and followed the instructions to the letter. Reamed it first with the drill in reverse to at least 1/16" of an inch into the bolt and then flipped the bit and used the extractor. The 1/2" drill I was using didn't have the power to turn the bolt (only to bite the bit into the bolt), so I clamped on a Vise-Grips locking pliers to the extractor bit and gave it a very slow, hard turn. And sure enough, I heard a snap and that bolt came loose. The extractor was into the bolt deep enough so that the heavy 1/2" drill I was using was literally hanging from it, but it didn't have the torque to do break the bolt. But, the SpeedOut did do the job. Consider me impressed with the tool. It may not work in all circumstances, but it is definitely something to have in the toolkit when all else fails. For $10 and a trip to Lowe's, it saved the day.
I bought the same titanium set today. Trying to disassemble an old shed in my backyard, and the screws are all flatheads, some with really shallow slots that cam out instantly. On top of that, they appear to be made of some hardass metal, because these titanium Speed Out bits would not make a nick in them. Lots of heat and noise, but no hole. Maybe I have to buy the cobalt version... or just grind the stubborn ones off. Good video in any case. 👍 Maybe these will serve me one day when I can't find them.
what kind of drill is that you are using? is there a corded version of that drill that'll work? the drill I currently own isn't powerful enough to unscrew the stripped screw and just catches fire instead of unscrewing which is cool, but unhelpful. I'm really broke and can't buy power tools and don't know anyone who can lend me one.
The ads and outer package state "Removes ANY Screw". The SpeedOut website header video states it can remove a 4-inch deck screw from redwood. However; the User Guide states: "3. Tool can be compromised if extracting large screws EXCEEDING 2 INCHES IN LENGTH AND/OR WITH AGGRESSIVE THREADS". I tried using the SpeedOut kit on five different three-inch deck screws. When the "burnished" end did make its cone, the "remover" end would not bite into the screw. I tried the "Helpful Hint" procedures. I tried two different drill/drivers. I worked for two hours and no imaginable combination of tool and drill/driver would create the necessary bite to remove a single screw. Maybe this works on small machine screws and/or short (
Totally useless and ineffective. Tried removing a stripped Philips #8. Followed the instructions and your video exactly. All that happens is the bit spins and spins. No gripping action on the screw at all.
Same with me. I double- and triple- checked to make sure I had the drivel turning counter-clockwise. But it did nothing, never got any traction on the bolt at all. Just slip and spun flaccidly like a 90-year-old penis on an iron hymen.
@@williamgaughan6462 Thanks for that tip. Since the very long (~4 inches) screw was sticking out of the wood a tiny bit, I ended up tightening the drill chuck on the screw itself, then reversing it on out of there. Luckily that worked!
