A screw with a rounded-out head is what this screw extractor set fixes: each double-ended HSS bit has a burnishing tip to cut a pilot hole on one end and a reverse-thread extractor on the other. Drill in, flip the bit, run the drill in reverse and the extractor grips the screw and turns it out. The 6 bits cover screws of 2 to 12 mm and store in a plastic case. It is part of our Home Essentials collection.

Frequently asked questions
Which screw sizes does the screw extractor set remove?
The 6-piece screw extractor set covers screws of about 2 to 12 mm: bit no. 0 for 2-3 mm, no. 1 for 3-5 mm, two no. 2 bits for 4-8 mm, no. 3 for 5-10 mm and no. 4 for 6-12 mm.
How do I use a double-ended screw extractor?
Fit the burnishing end of the screw extractor in a drill and drill a small hole into the stripped screw head, flip the bit, then run the drill in reverse so the extractor end bites and backs the screw out.
Do I need a special drill for the screw extractor set?
No. The screw extractor bits have hex shanks that fit a standard drill chuck or driver; the drill must be able to run in reverse.
What is the difference between the gold and silver screw extractor sets?
The gold and silver screw extractor sets have the same 6 bits and sizes; only the surface finish colour differs.
