5 Easy Tricks to Remove Rounded Stripped Allen Hex Socket Bolts

or hex fastener that are stripped, but I'll cover the techniques that I use regularly as they might prove useful for you as what works one day may not works
the next.

There are quite a few different types of screws and bolts so in the beginning of the video about 5 Easy Tricks to Remove Rounded Stripped Allen Hex Socket Bolts as well as many other techniques
I will cover the main types you could encounter like Button Head Socket Screw, Flat Head Socket Cap Screw, Socket Head Cap Screw and Socket Set Screws as
these are the main types I regularly use and gathered many great techniques over the years to remove the stripped rounded hex Allen socket cap bolts.
I rarely find myself using Allen hex keys, but there are still times when they are convenient to use.

Allen hex bolts or Allen hex screws come in both SAE and Metric and can be difficult to identify so always ensure you are using the tightest fitting tool available.
Additionally, it is important to remove as much rust dirt and debris from the hex head by whatever means possible (Scraping, blowing air, penetration fluid)
before you insert the hex Allen tool.
Apply pressure and continue to apply pressure on the hex allen tools to the rounded off bolt. You may even find it necessary to use them on an impact tool.
Should you use them on an impact tool be absolutely certain you are in the reverse direction and know that you may only get one chance at removing it.

The 5 Easy Tricks and Tips and other techniques used in this video to remove a stripped hex Allen cap socket bolt:

1. Ingersoll Rand Tech Solutions Bit Socket Set - https://www.irhandtools.com/products/...
2. Mac Tools RBRT Technology - https://www.mactools.com/en-us/Socket...
3. Torx Socket Bit
4. Triple Square Socket Bit
5. Hex Socket Bit from a different size or type (SAE vs metric)
6. Cobra Knipex/Pliers/Channellock/ Vise Grips
7. Drill using a left-handed drill bit. You could always drill the head from the bolt
8. Cut a slit and use a screwdriver
9. Use a center punch to knock loose the threads and dislodge the fastener
10. For Thread Threadlocker and Loctite use a Heat source such as a Soldering Iron or Small torch.

Loctite is an acrylic-base adhesive, which means that the solvents useful for cementing acrylic parts together will have some effect
such as methylene chloride, or acetone. The problem with using solvents is that a very small amount of the solvent actually penetrates the Loctite and down inside the screw thread. Loctite Chisel #79040 (their stripper/removal product) is another recommended solvent to remove cured Loctite and it works well.
