Thread Extraction

Thread extraction is the process of removing damaged or broken threaded fasteners, such as bolts or screws, from a workpiece. This technique is essential when threads become stripped, corroded, or otherwise compromised, making it impossible to unscrew the fastener normally. Various methods can be employed for thread extraction, including the use of specialized tools such as screw extractors, which grip the remains of the fastener and allow for controlled removal. Additionally, thread extraction kits may include drills, taps, and extraction kits to facilitate the process. Thread extraction is crucial in mechanical repair, automotive maintenance, and manufacturing, ensuring that damaged components can be effectively removed and replaced without causing further harm to the surrounding material.
