How to Remove Damaged Screws
Are you currently trying to fix or refurbish an old table in your home? If you are, then you may come across some really damaged screws that just won't come out easily. You may want to remove screws for many reasons. For example, you may wish to remove a wooden door from a cabinet so that you can repair it. Unfortunately, due to wear and tear, the head of the screw has either broken off or has rusted so terribly that an ordinary screw driver just won't work.
You may want to use special tools to help you remove those stubborn screws. Without the right tools, removing these damaged screws can waste a lot of time. The tools that you choose depends on the extent of damage on the screw heads. In general, there are two commonly known ways to remove damaged screws.
First, if the screw heads are slightly damaged, you may want to apply some Screwgrab. Screwgrab is a special type of substance with pieces of crushed diamonds in it. It is applied to the screw head. When dried, it gives more body to the screw head. The crushed diamond pieces also provide more friction. The idea is to build up the screw head a little bit more so that it can be removed by a screw driver.
However, for heavily damaged screw heads, Screwgrab will not work. The alternative is to use a screw extractor kit.
A screw extractor kit is a set of equipment made up of 2 simple devices.. It has a T shaped handle, where you can attach a screw extractor bolt. The screw extractor bolt comes in different sizes so that the right size can be used for different screws. The way it works is simple, but requires a little more work.
A pilot hole is needed on the head of the screw so that the screw extractor can attach itself to the screw head. That means some drilling may be involved. The screw extractor kit usually comes with a recommended size for the drill bit to use. So make sure that you use the right size. Otherwise, the screw extractor bolt won't fit into the hole.
Once the pilot hole is ready, the screw extractor is placed in a vertical position. Pressure is then applied on the T shaped handle and the handle is turned in a clockwise direction. As it turns clockwise, the extractor attaches itself to the hole in the screw head. The handle is then turned in an anti-clockwise direction to remove the screw.
You can also attach the bolt directly to a power drill for a more direct approach. Using the power drill, you can immediately attach the extractor bolt to the screw head with some drilling in the clockwise direction. Simply activate the drill in the counter clockwise direction to remove the screw. This way, you don't have to run into the risk of the extractor bolt not fitting into the pilot hole.
In sum, depending on the extent of damage to the screw heads, different tools and techniques can be applied. Try using Screwgrab first as it's more convenient and definitely much cleaner as it leaves no residue. If that doesn't work, use a power drill with a screw extractor bolt.
