This actually worked when a stripped screw removal tool didn’t even work, thank you!!!!

[@tipcentric]

You’re welcome! I have tried them removal tools a few times. They do work, but not as well as this method can 👍👍

What size drill bit for the T-15. Also is he going forward or backwards.

That's what I want to know too of the size drill bit.

[@RickyEats]

what size drill bit ?

[@JohnOcampo-pg4tr]

Whichever fits I believe its called a torx

[@SMIELYYIOS]

Thank you perro

[@onetruesoldiervt3686]

That’s smart !!!

[@Biblicalgiants]

Im thinking about using this method on an expensive set of balisongs with T-10 screws.

[@AfarikanMan]

You dont need to use the drill bit just use a different size screw bit

[@jinyige4205]

HI, What size drill bit do you use for that t15?

[@ProjectArms4719]

It worked!!!

[@tipcentric]

Did you try it? Awesome! 😀👍👍

[@Pew-pew-is-fun]

Been doing this for years

[@finalmakerr1]

Cool 😎

[@WarrensRandomAndWeirdVideos]

If this works ur saving me money my friend

[@bobwallace9814]

Before doing that, put a small piece of duct tape on the screw and use a manual screwdriver. It turns it right out.

[@ELScorcho0110]

That does not always work.

[@Khon_kha]

@@ELScorcho0110yup I already tried that didn’t work screw was too rounded and is still stuck 😂

[@jettschenker]

The video is kind of pointless when you don't tell him what size bit to use with the t15

common sense will prevail

Hey how do I do it for a flat head screw that is stripped?

[@tont0576]

Иногда работает, а иногда бита обламывается. Поэтому надо брать не очень нужную биту.

[@thooney2934]

Wish I seen this about half an hour ago. Just been fucked on a screw for past 20 minutes

[@shak_997]

Is that a torx bit?

[@tipcentric]

Yeah t15 I think

[@pauldcoombs7392]

Or put a rubber band in it then reverse your drill whilst the end is in the band does the same thing

[@tipcentric]

Did that one in another video. It’s a bit hit and miss, depends how much grab it can get in the screw head and how tight the screw is. 👍👍

[@cherigriffith724]

Yeah no not always😢

[@jamesallen8917]

What sizes to use though, surely every situation different

[@yolandagomez9255]

What are these bits called? I tried everything. I even tried to extraction tools and it does not work.

[@woodennecktie]

why no manufacturer comes with T16 T 21 T26 etc , now the tolerance is useless because the screws use maximum tolerance too

[@TimeGallon]

What size drill bit?

[@swebbi383]

what if its sideways

[@JenniferSchadeLMTGulfBreeze]

Unfortunately, this didn’t work for me. Still can’t get the screw out.

yes, that was the whole point of the tip 🤷‍♂️

[@crisg6791]

What is the size of the drill bet

[@hunterc2923]

In the start you used the wrong bit

[@user-zw2vz5ib9c]

Для такой операции нужна бита очень хорошего качества. Как резец по металлу.

[@luisandraschnik3001]

Podrías usar un extractor de tornillos

[@hopebgood]

My elderly mum just had some bloke replace some door handles today. On closer inspection a lot of the screws he put in have the screw head absolutely stripped/destroyed. It looks like he actually drilled out the screw heads! That's not good is it? Seems like a right bodge job to me. Any replies would be appreciated cos I hate seeing my mum ripped off.

[@tipcentric]

There’s a ton of ways to remove stripped screws. Sometimes you can get them out with a rubber band, other times you need a bit more brute force like in this video. You can also buy reverse thread spiral bits to get them out, but the good ones cost a fair bit. I’d try the rubber band method first, failing that, I’d try this method. Then replace with new screws, and either drive them by hand, or make sure your clutch on your drill is set to a low setting to prevent stripping 👍
