These things have saved my ass so many times in the field.

Whether the threads are stripped, OR the head is stripped, OR painted over, these pliers bite down and extract.

Made in Japan, these are the real deal.

They do what vise-grips cant, and don't chew up the plate below.

Great for removing security screws without the required driver.

Highly recommended

The directions are in Japanese, but basically; squeeze as hard as you can, and turn counterclockwise

Some security screws are reverse threaded, so keep that in mind. If heads look like this, assume they need to be removed clockwise
