Damaged Bolt Removal Socket – 18mm

Brief Overview

This 18mm damaged bolt removal socket is engineered to extract bolts and nuts that have been stripped, rounded, or otherwise compromised—a common challenge in automotive repair, industrial maintenance, and heavy equipment service. The spiral flute internal profile creates multiple contact points that bite into damaged fastener surfaces, providing reliable grip where standard sockets fail. Whether you're running a busy shop or managing field repairs, this socket eliminates the frustration of frozen or stripped fasteners. For mechanics working with smaller bolt sizes, we also offer compatible 12mm damaged bolt extraction sockets and 17mm grip sockets to cover a full range of workshop needs.

Key Features

• Spiral Flute Internal Profile: Multiple gripping lobes engage deeply with damaged bolt surfaces, preventing slippage and cam-out
• Hardened Steel Construction: Phosphate/oxide coated finish provides corrosion resistance and durability under impact loads
• Compact Design: Shorter overall height allows access to tight fastening points and recessed bolt locations
• Clear Size Marking: 18mm designation clearly printed on the socket body for quick identification
• Impact-Ready: Designed to withstand impact wrench and breaker bar application without deformation
