Cleveland C53658 Spiral Flute Screw Extractor Size 8

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C53658 is a Size 8 spiral flute screw extractor designed to remove broken or seized fasteners in the 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch screw size range. Also known as the EZY-OUT screw extractor, it is constructed from carbon steel for durability under the torque required to back out damaged fasteners. The overall length of 4-3/8 inches provides adequate reach in most drill-out scenarios. This tool is used by machinists, pipefitters, millwrights, and general maintenance technicians wherever stuck or sheared fasteners need to be extracted without destroying the surrounding material.

The C53658 is suited for industrial and commercial maintenance applications where larger-diameter fasteners are common. It is appropriate for use on bolts and screws in the 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch range found in heavy equipment, structural assemblies, pipe flanges, and mechanical systems. The spiral flute design bites into the fastener as counterclockwise torque is applied, increasing grip as removal force increases. It is sold individually and fits into standard extractor sets or can be used as a standalone replacement tool.

Key Features

• Spiral flute design increases grip with applied counterclockwise torque
• Sized for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch broken or seized fasteners
• Carbon steel construction handles high extraction torque
• 4-3/8 inch overall length for reach in deep or recessed applications
• EZY-OUT style for reliable engagement in pre-drilled pilot holes

Compatibility

Designed as a Size 8 spiral flute screw extractor for fasteners in the 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch diameter range. Compatible with standard pilot holes appropriate for this extractor size.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or experienced maintenance technician should perform fastener extraction. Before use, drill an appropriately sized pilot hole into the center of the broken fastener using a left-hand drill bit when possible. Apply counterclockwise torque with a tap wrench or suitable drive tool sized to the extractor square drive. Do not apply excessive lateral force, as carbon steel extractors can fracture if bent during extraction.
