Gearwrench 86078 Bolt Extractor Socket 1/4 in Drive 22-27mm

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 86078 is a dual-sized bolt extractor socket designed to remove damaged, rounded, or seized fasteners in the 22 to 27 mm range. The socket features a 1/4 inch square end drive, allowing it to be used with a standard ratchet, wrench, or pliers depending on the access constraints of the job. Laser etched markings provide clear, durable size identification that resists wear in shop environments. At 3.23 inches overall length and weighing 0.6 pounds, this socket is built for targeted extraction work across automotive, mechanical, and general maintenance applications.

This extractor socket is suited for automotive technicians, fleet maintenance crews, and general mechanics working on fasteners that have been stripped, corroded, or otherwise compromised. The dual-sized design covers a range of fastener heads from 22 to 27 mm, reducing the need to swap tools mid-job. The square end drive accepts standard 1/4 inch drive ratchets and can also be turned with a wrench or pliers when clearance is limited or additional torque is needed.

Installation Notes

Bolt extractor sockets are typically used by automotive technicians and general mechanics. Before use, ensure the work area is safely supported and the vehicle or equipment is powered down or de-energized as applicable. Select the correct extractor size and seat it fully on the fastener before applying torque to avoid slippage. Do not use an impact driver with extraction sockets unless the tool and socket are both rated for impact use.
