You have to drill it right out in that situation. Then re tap the thread. Your going back to the 1970's when we used to do that a lot as we kept cars 40 years.

This is the best video I've ever seen on this method. Thank you!

The first method shown was spot on and saved me hundreds of pounds, after overtightening an M6 fastener that snapped on my egr valve. thanks

So I see some doubters here, I've been doing marine and industrial repair and maintenance for close to 40 years now and I have a set of extractors and Left Hand cobalt bits in my box. They've saved a lot of work, and made a lot of believers. Drilling the bolt relieves the stress using the LH bit means all of the torque is trying to twist the bolt out and gives you a head start on the easy-out. And yes it works on rusty and bi-metallic corrosion and if you're lucky even on galled SS. Don't count on the last.

or use gradually larger bolts to thin out the walls of the bolt so eventually it can be removed in pieces. i do appreciate your videos. sending this one especially to an australian friend of mine. who has a broken exhaust bolt on a motorcycle he needs to remove

I used to work in the toolroom at a plastic injection molding facility. Removing broken hardware is a huge part of the job. By far the worse thing to remove from a blind hole is a broken dowel pin. I was just going to say that you can get easy-outs in sets. They have the appropriate size left-hand drill with them. Most often, the broken stud comes out with the drill and you don't even need the easy-out.

These are great! They've worked every time I've used them.

the reason an eazy out is not the best answer is it creates expansion and hench causes additional pressure to the thread surface thus defeating the removal attempt.the left handed drill is a little known and seldom used quick answer,smart stuff.I would have used a little larger bit as it relieves even more side wall pressure but you really have to have your center and bit alignment correct if your take the tolerances closer.Nice job you just made many people's lives easier.

Great video. I broke a exhaust manifold stud off in the head of my 03' F150 and it was hell trying to find LH drill bits! Finally found a 13 piece set at Harbor Freight. I'm going to give it a shot this weekend.

I have many years of working on different types of machines . The best way if you have a welding machine weld a nut to the broken bolt or stud. after it cools down spray on penetrating oil and wiggle the bolt until it starts to move. If you have stainless steel to stainless steel and the bolt has frozen you are going to probably have to drill and re-tap the threaded hole.

Nice information but only for mild steel bolt but if it is hardned pl also suggest if u have any idea

i WAS going to ask you almost the same question. albeit in a more polite way seems all of your videos are set up like this. BUT this to me is youtubes treasure trove of howtos for situations like this. thank you sir. btw may i ask , if this technique does not work, can a person weld a piece of small rod to the end of hte broken bolt, and then remove bolt by some other means?, vise grip pliers or some other tool if the easy-out doesnt work.

In the USA, these bits are readily available from you local auto parts store or tool truck. Yes, they are a bit spendy, ranging from $50 - 150 or there abouts. Do an online search for these examples: NAPA sells VG 11119 & VG 11135ZR kits made by Vise-Grip; stocked at a local DC. Other auto parts stores should also be able to get them. For bits only, DBLS105 by Blue Point & DMCLM5 by Matco are other examples. I would think these would also be available at your local hardware store, but I've had no luck.

I've been machining various things for more years than I care to remember. I have never seen, or even heard of a left handed drill before I watched your video! Quite true, so thanks for enlightening me. Apart from stud removal, what else are they used for?

The only times this happens to me are in super cramped places like the engine of my truck where I can't even make a center point due to lack of space to adequately use hammer, let alone a drill.

I need to get broken lug nuts out of my bmw e30. Is it best to start with a smaller big then increase size? Do you apply pressure when drilling?

Awesome video. Would you be able to make a video on the different type of bits you use on certain surfaces and how to keep your bits from getting worn down. Thank you!

another one is to use a center punch on the out board edge and tap lightly counterclockwise.I've had good luck with this if the bolt is not rusty.another thing about counter drilling,it depends on the metal Rockwell.if it is grade 8 or more most bits just overheat and won't cut the steel.for sure metal can't argue with abrasives!

nice..in my case i have a broken head BUT its for a screw and not a bolt. so there is already a hole on the shaft. i cannot use vise grips to the the sides becoz the exposed screw is kinda deep. what do u recommend in that case. do i have to drill? or can i just use a extractor tool to directly and reverse? any ideas. thanks

Hmm, I would like to see this done in a same scenario basis.. I.E. Rusted bolt in a threaded bit of old steep with a stainless steel bolt. As an engineer by trade I have found that this method generally doesn't work, the easiest solution is to use molycote or anti-seize compound on the threads before tightening/torquing the fixing. I prefer to weld a nut on the broken bolt and pull it out, or ld drill it out and tap the hole again, broken bolts cause flat threads (amongst other things)

Great video. For some applications this would work great(such as sheared off bolts). A left handed drill bit would never be able to remove a bolt which is seized in an engine block. Think about the amount of force it takes to get the head of a strong hex bolt(Usually grade 5) to twist off. The drill bit strength will not even come close. I have had broken bolt extractors break on me in the past, a few times. I just uploaded a video showing my solution to a recent problem.

As a forty year professional mechanic, I can sat you are correct. Yesterday I was extracting a broken exhaust manifold bolt from a 4.8L GM engine. It was broken flush. It's a rare occasion that a left handed drill bit will back the bolt out. One must first consider why is the bolt broken. Is it cross threaded, rusted, bottomed out? Most of those conditions is going to prevent backing it out with a left handed bit. What is worse, breaking off a drill bit or an easy out because those are hardened and makes drilling them out almost impossible. On the 4.8 L yesterday, it was just a whore. It was an 8 X 1.25 and I finally ended up drilling it out and Heli-coiled it to a 10 X 1.25 Fortunately is was a Savana Van and I was working on #7 cylinder. I had removed the motor mount bolts and lifted the engine to give me good access. It ended up being a good permanent repair and will outlast the life of the vehicle.

@Gottenhimfella

What people are not factoring in here is that *if* the drill is almost as large as the root diameter of the bolt, rather than as shown here, (in my experience) the remnants will not have enough strength left to hold themselves outwards against the female thread. Generally what's left of the bolt (effectively little more than a helical coil) will wind itself out if you feed increasingly hard so the drill bites before it gets right through. The heat from drilling also helps. If you don't have a left handed bit the right size, just sharpen the tip of a RH bit the wrong way.

Never new you could get a left handed drill bit,where would you get one from,surely not from your local shop. Handy video though. Thanks for the tip.

I had to do the this on a fascinator got chewed out with my Dewalt titanium bits problem is is that they were right handed drill bits.

Vídeo muito bom, alguém poderia traduzir em português?

Some basic rules. 1 If it broke when you tried to unscrew it an extractor (easyout) 99% of the time will break in there. 2 You need to know how to find the true center of the bolt, the thread pitch is important here so you can figure out the true center. 3 If someone has already had a go before it comes to you then your problems have just started. 4 If it broke in a blind hole while tightening it may be bottomed out so will not be easyouted. I have drilled out extractors with tugsten drills.

With a left handed drill bit inserted into drill, do you keep your drill set on the tightening position(right/clockwise rotation)? I have an 8mm bolt which I will be trying to extract either later today or tomorrow.

Might as well use left hand bits when drilling a bolt out completely, and if the bolt material is not too strong for the method to work anyway, chances are it will twist out well before damaging any threads if it's properly aligned. Very useful for working near combustible materials where a flame or welding are not options unless one is seeking a Darwin Award. Could also use cold as well between attempts, as the bit will heat things up a bit.

There are left hand drill bits. They have the spiral on them going around the bit in the opposite direction. You have to put the drill into reverse in order to drill with them. You can generally buy left hand bits at large hardware stores oriented toward supplies for machinists and metalworkers. They are unusual and obscure, but they are out there!

Most people have probably never heard of a left handed screw bit. But, as you have shown in this vid they do exist. 😉 But, probably trying to get your hands on them is hot so easy unless you go to proper D.I.Y specialist. RAPID use to be the BEST for this But, no longer available. So, I have no idea as to where to find or obtain these bits ( MAYBE CLAS OLSON or even E-BAY or AMAZON ) or maybe someone else may know of a place that could have various sizes to do with the job. ANYWAY!!! GREAT tip on this vid for extracting a damaged bolt. 😉
