Had 6 Hi Tensile steel bolts to remove which hadn't been moved for years. Managed to get 4 of them out okay using these bolt grips. The remaining 2 required more drastic action. I should say that the heads of these bolts were a ridiculous choice by the designer. They were the 12 point socket type. These type of heads on carbon steel do not stand up well to corrosion. They are particularly difficult to remove when high torques are used to install them in the first place. When trying to undo them they the heads tend to round off. The heads were 13mm so I used the 14mm bolt grip and hammered it on. Not using too force but enough to ensure the grip will wind itself up on what was left of the bolt head. Being made in America I trusted the product and was not disappointed. Not all branded stuff these days is made where you might think it is.Read full review

To be fair I don't know how good or bad this tool should be in removing frozen bolts from a mower blade. I also ordered wrong size drive. It didn't fit comfortably over the nuts to get enough grip to take them off. However I may be asking too much. I'm sure will come in useful at some future date for different task.

Had a sump plug that was rounded off. It just wasn’t for shifting tried all sorts then saw this online. Lightly hammered one socket on used a spanner on the hex part of the socket and pop plug was loosened first for. I don’t often write reviews, but I’m so pleased with this product I felt I must review it. Five stars.

Removed some very damaged motorcycle exhaust studs cleanly after tree other stud extractors had failed. Ability to work in confined space and no moving parts were key! Saved me removing the engine or cylinder head and hacksawing the exhaust off to do it.

Sockets are absolutely brilliant - you can really tell the difference between these and the cheaper versions as the sockets are heavier and look a lot better thicker metal . Case is rubbish though , the holes where the sockets sit are too big so as soon as you open the case the sockets fly out a million miles an hour and give you a free work out when you have chase them around the work shop Good tools will probably store them somewhere else tho and throw the case away
