Bolt Extractor Kit — Remove Stripped, Rusted & Damaged Fasteners with Confidence
Stripped bolts and seized nuts are one of the most frustrating obstacles in any repair job — whether you're working on a vehicle, appliance, or outdoor structure. HomeDIYer's 14-Piece Bolt Extractor Kit is engineered specifically for those moments when standard sockets fail. With a 3/8" drive and 13 precision-sized extractors, this set gives you the grip and torque needed to break free even the most stubborn fasteners.
The kit is constructed from chromium-molybdenum (Cr-Mo) steel with a universal lobular design and internal reverse spiral flutes, heat-treated through a quenching process for enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and high-temperature durability. Sizes range from 6.35mm (1/4") to 19mm (3/4"), covering the most common fastener dimensions found in automotive, home, and industrial applications. A 1/4" hex drive to 3/8" socket adapter is included, allowing use with power drills and other 1/4" hex drive tools.
Whether you're tackling a weekend garage project, repairing a car tire, working on a rooftop, or servicing equipment in a repair shop or factory, this extractor set handles stripped, rusted, frozen, and painted bolts, nuts, lugs, studs, and hex screws — all stored neatly in a heavy-duty blow-moulded case for job-site portability.

🏭 Factory & Industrial Workers
Handle damaged or corroded fasteners on machinery and equipment with the torque and grip needed for industrial-grade extraction tasks.
What size fasteners can this kit remove?
The kit covers 13 sizes from 6.35mm (1/4") to 19mm (3/4"), including 8mm, 9.5mm, 10mm, 11mm, 12mm, 12.7mm, 13mm, 14mm, 16mm, 17mm, and 17.5mm — handling the vast majority of common bolt and nut sizes found in automotive, roofing, repair shop, and industrial applications.
What tools can I use with this kit?
The sockets are designed for 3/8" drive tools such as ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches. The included 1/4" hex drive to 3/8" socket adapter also allows you to use the sockets with power drills and impact drivers that have a 1/4" hex chuck.
Can these extractors remove completely rounded-off bolt heads?
Yes. The universal lobular design and internal reverse spiral flutes dig and cut into the surface of damaged fasteners as torque is applied, making them effective on stripped, rounded, and corroded bolt heads and nut faces that standard sockets can no longer grip.
Are these suitable for use on rusted or frozen bolts?
Yes. The Cr-Mo steel construction and reverse spiral flute design are specifically engineered to handle rusted, frozen, and seized fasteners. For extremely corroded bolts, applying a penetrating lubricant beforehand is generally recommended to improve results.
How durable are the extractor sockets?
Each socket is made from chromium-molybdenum (Cr-Mo) steel and undergoes a quenching heat treatment process that enhances hardness, wear resistance, and high-temperature durability. The lobular design distributes force evenly, reducing the risk of slipping or breaking under typical extraction loads.
Does the kit come with a storage case?
Yes. All 14 pieces are stored in a heavy-duty blow-moulded case with labeled slots for each socket size, keeping your set organized and easy to transport between jobs.
Can I use this kit on lug nuts?
Yes. The wide size range and reverse spiral flute design make this kit well-suited for removing damaged or seized lug nuts, which is one of its most common automotive applications.
