Stanley Proto Introduces Bolt Extractor Sockets



New tool makes it easier to remove damaged nuts and bolts.

Conyers, GA, February 1, 2006 -- Removing rusted, rounded, or otherwise imperfect nuts and bolts is, to say the least, a challenge. There may be no way to get a grip with a conventional wrench or socket. And the alternatives of grinding down the fastener's rounded edges to provide a grippable surface, or drilling into its surface so that it can be removed with a screw extractor, are time consuming and frustrating. Now there's an easier way: The Stanley® Proto® Bolt Extractor Socket lets users grab and remove a damaged fastener without these additional steps.

The Bolt Extractor Socket's interior surface consists of 18 to 30 (depending on tool size) spiral threads. "Threading" the tool counter-clockwise onto a damaged fastener causes the threads to make a tight grip on the fastener's surface. The tool's low profile will easily slip into tight spaces, while a through-hole design lets users access fasteners at the end of long bolts or studs. Use either a box, open end, ratcheting or socket wrench to turn the tool and extract even the most stubborn nut or bolt.

The Bolt Extractor is available in sizes ranging from 1/4" to 5/8" and from 7 mm to 16 mm. Each socket can turn multiple fastener sizes.
