DIY Bolt Wrench: Easily Remove Stuck Angle Grinder Discs - HomeDIYer


Materials List

  • Heavy-Duty Long Bolt (Handle)
  • Socket Head Cap Screws (Pins)
  • Hex Nuts (x2 sets)
  • Power Drill
  • Angle Grinder

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Mark the Pin Alignment

Measure the distance between the two holes on the grinder flange nut with a ruler, then transfer that precise measurement onto the large bolt for marking.

Step 2: Drill the Mounting Holes

Secure the bolt in a vise and drill two straight-through holes at the marked positions with a power drill.

Step 3: Secure the Drive Pins

Insert the socket head screws into the holes and lock them tight with hex nuts on the opposite side to prevent wobbling.

Step 4: Trim and Leverage Test

Trim the handle to your preferred comfortable length. The extra leverage helps you quickly remove stuck or rusted cutting discs with minimal effort.

How to Use

Insert the heads of the socket screws into the holes on the flange nut. Grip the long handle and apply steady pressure. The massive increase in leverage allows you to break seized discs loose instantly without damaging the machine.
