3/8-Inch Drive 12mm Damaged Bolt Extractor Socket, Chrome-Moly Steel

Brief Overview

This 12mm damaged bolt extractor socket is engineered to remove stripped, rounded, or seized fasteners that standard sockets cannot grip. The inward-facing spiral flutes bite aggressively into compromised bolt heads, providing reliable extraction without slipping. Built from chrome-molybdenum steel for durability and impact resistance, this socket fits standard 3/8-inch drive tools. Pair it with smaller-capacity extractors like the 11mm option or step up to larger sizes for bigger fastener challenges to build a complete bolt-removal arsenal in your shop.

Key Features

• Spiral-Flute Design: Left-handed tapered flutes grip damaged fastener heads without slipping or cam-out
• Chrome-Molybdenum Construction: Heat-treated steel withstands impact and repeated extraction cycles
• 3/8-Inch Drive Standard: Compatible with all 3/8-inch ratchets, breaker bars, and pneumatic tools
• Hexagonal Drive End: Allows wrench engagement for additional leverage on stubborn fasteners
• Dark Matte Finish: Protective coating resists corrosion in workshop and field environments
• Chamfered Edges: Reinforced transitions between hex and cylindrical body reduce stress concentration

Business Advantages for Resellers

High Margin Item: Damaged bolt removal is a recurring shop necessity—mechanics return for replacement extractors after wear, making this a consistent repeat-purchase category.

Problem-Solver Appeal: Position this as the essential tool that saves jobs when standard sockets fail. Shops facing seized or stripped fasteners will buy on demand, often in sets.

Complements Core Inventory: Pairs naturally with socket sets, impact tools, and breaker bars—strong add-on suggestion at checkout.

Durable Construction Justifies Price: Chrome-moly material withstands prolonged use, reducing customer complaints about premature failure and protecting your reputation.
