18-Piece Bolt Extractor Set | Made in USA Turbo Sockets for Stripped, Rounded, Rusted Bolts & Nuts | Impact Grade 1/4" & 3/8" Drive Lug Nut & Bolt Remover Kit | Nut Extractor Socket Set

I can't speak more highly, about this Rocketsocket set. I used it for removing stripped and twisted bolts. Works great! Recently had to remove a oil plug that the damn auto dealer tightened with an impact wrench. Folks you're not supposed to tighten an oil plug that much!!! Needless to say, when I attempted to remove it, the bolt was rounded. Now I used a standard wrench not an impact driver and the bolt was toast. Luckily I had the Rocketsocket extractor set already on standby. I did have to wait to order a NEW oil plug from the dealer because they ultimately screwed this up. I will never go to a dealer to do anything anymore. Anyways, this is an awesome set to use. I recommend using a heavy mallet to tap the extractor onto the bolt a standard hammer doesn't have enough weight to drive it through the stripped bolt. Highly recommended and will use again and again.

I've only used this tool a couple of times on rounded off 14mm bolts and it worked great. This kit doesn't include 15mm which is strange. Today I actually need a 15mm for a damaged shock Absorber nut. I've tried buying a 15mm but can not find one that's made by ROCKETSOCKET.

Came in good case and seems good quality. Haven't had to use it luckily. I just bought it since I saw it had a good review on "project farm" YT channel and a good deal popped up on Amazon. Hope I never need it.

For those wondering if folks were still getting the socket rails instead of the case I don't think that's still happening. At least for the master 30 pc set. The blow mold case... it's okay. It's got a proper hinge. Not folded plastic that will break after opening a dozen times. The point of failure will be the front plastic clip. It's meh. On a cold winter morn, in the rust belt, before the garage is warmed up, that plastic clip is probably not long for the world. The socket themselves are beautifully constructed. Proper stamping. Sockets that rely on just laser etchings drive me nuts. My one bit of advice, if you're on a budget, get the 18 pc or 13 pc without worry. Small sizes that this master set covers are so rarely a problem. Brute strength with an anti-slip wrench or vice grips usually do the trick. When that doesn't work I've killed it with a Dewill style extractor (it's bulky tho), or I reach for the Dremel. For mechanics, on a small fastener, with this set in your main box 40 ft away, and your Dremel right there on the roll cart, you're going to grind that sucker off. It's not like your saving any hardware if you use the rocket socket instead, right? I can only remember one time I would have preferred a rocket socket on a tiny size and that was working on the interior of a pristine car. Having said all this, I splurged on the 30 pc, because I could, and for the ultra rare instance of problematic access, maybe worrying about nearby combustible material that the Dewill or Dremel can't handle. The real utility of rocket socket is those larger sizes. Look at getting the 1/2 drive lug extractor by rocket socket if you can. No one is taking a Dremel to a large grade 8 nut or bolt of any significant size. And angle grinders aren't getting into engine bays, hahaha. A lot of cheap extractor sets are out there now with mid tier success, but they wear out, are hit and miss on quality, and still others have inferior fluting. This set is pro quality, equal to or better than the truck sets. You get snap off quality for a better price. And it's hands down better than the Irwin or gear wrench extractor sets. Those sets are good, rocket socket is better because the last thing I want when I start throwing profanity at a fastener, is to use an extractor that works only 80% of the time. That's why rocket socket exists... To help weekend warriors, tradesmen, and pro mechanics with anger management. For it's performance, and price, stick with the best. PS. I don't know the logistics or done a deep dive on the physics of making larger sizes (20mm on up) but if they made a 1/2" drive set to act as a supplemental set to the 30 master set I would be highly interested. Acorn style lug nuts of any size with that slip of crap metal top always round off to an impact socket. Those lug nuts are heinous and should be banned. I'm over using a chisel and trying to be gentle to an alloy rim trying to get those out for 40 mins straight. And if you don't live in the rust belt... The chemical bond of those lug nuts split a snap-on deep well impact. At least I would have another option in those recess lug nut areas where you can't torch (thermal shock) the lug nut because of the alloy rims.

I bought these to get an unusual seat belt bolt removed from a 1970's vintage Fiat. There was a decent amount of rust involved, and the head of the bolt was very short, which meant everything wanted to slip on it. With these and a little electric impact gun, it blew it right out. I've used it on smaller (10mm) rusted fasteners, and today a friend borrowed it to get a big TBelt idler pulley grade 10 bolt removed from a V6 Toyota. Every time it just works where other solutions have not. The tools are well-made. Very high quality materials, and they look as good as anything that Matco or Snap-On would put out. They also do not be appearing to picking up any appreciable wear from use thus far. It's one of those products that sounds a little too good to be true, but it's the real deal. Good tools are never cheap, and you won't be sorry.
