— Non-removable Screws: Every now and again a craftsmen needs a screw to stay put permanently. Non-removable screws are designed with a head-slot that can only be twisted to insert the screw. The reverse side of the head’s socket has been clipped to keep the screwdriver’s tip from locking onto the screw.

— If the pilot hole doesn’t seem to be enough to entice the screw through, try rubbing a bit of paraffin wax or moist bar soap along the screws threads. This technique is especially helpful with the softer metal screws like brass or aluminum.

This will break the screw free and you should then be able to reverse the screw out. If the screw’s head is sticking up, grab it with a pair of vice grips or pliers and turn it loose that way.

The square head is built to be fastened to a T Handle but also works with an adjustable wrench or vice grips. After a pilot hole has been pre-drilled into the stuck screw, the counter-clockwise threads are designed to screw backward into the screw’s body. The extractor digs into the
