Stripped screws frequently trouble DIY enthusiasts, technicians, and industrial operators. Common causes include over-tightening, incorrect tools, and soft or incompatible screw materials. Stripped screws lead to challenging removals, potential equipment damage, increased maintenance costs, and compromised safety, especially in precision tasks like CNC machining, automotive repairs, and medical device assembly.
Proven Methods for Removing Stripped Screws
Depending on severity, effective removal methods include:
- Rubber band method: Increases grip by placing a rubber band over the screw.
- Specialized screw extractors: Designed specifically for efficient screw removal.
- Reverse drill bits: Ideal for severely stripped screws.
- Thread re-tapping: Necessary when damage is extreme.
How to Prevent Screw Stripping
Prevention is better than cure. Recommended preventive measures:
- Correct tightening methods: Precisely control torque.
