The Husky 7-Piece Dual Direction Extraction Socket Set brings game-changing innovation to the world of bolt extraction. These sockets feature a tapered throat which allows for easy placement onto a fastener and ensures the fastener will not become lodged in the socket after removal. The sockets have a patented design that allows them to grip in both the left hand (Removal) and right hand (Installation) directions, this would allow for the reuse of a damaged fastener if needed.
- Set includes 7-pieces: 5 metric extraction sockets – 8 mm, 10 mm, 12 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm and 2 impact adapters – 1/4 in. and 3/8 in.
- Tapered entry enables socket to easily seat on a damaged fastener, no hammering required
- Square drive with hex base for use with impact gun, ratchet, wrench or pliers
- Dual directional design for removing or tightening damaged fasteners
- Chrome molybdenum (CR-MO) steel for superior strength and durability
- Enables removal or reuse of damaged, rusted or corroded fasteners
- 10X longer impact life capacity versus competition
- 5X greater torque output

What an improvement for bolt extraction! Back in the day, to remove a stripped bolt I had to first drill a hole then tap a special rod into it. Next, I added a special nut onto the rod and carefully tried to unscrew the stripped bolt out. Often, the rod would slip – it really was a poor system (see photo). Husky extractor sockets work great and have saved me some headaches. I definitely can recommend these sockets.

These worked as expected removing soft rounded timing cover bolts. It would also be helpful to have these available without shoulders with adapters for different sized drivers.

Love this set! We had two rounded off bolts on a Ford Windstar van. Tapped the 13mm socket on the bolts and the both came out without any slipping what so ever. Getting replacement bolts proved to be problematic due to the age of the vehicle so we used the same socket to put them back in. Again worked flawlessly! A must have for anyone working on their vehicles!

The Extraction socket was exactly what I needed. A bolt head was rounded over, in a location where I could not get a good grip on it with locking pliers. I found this set at Home depot, and within 5 minutes of arriving back home, I had the bolt removed. (4.5 of those minutes were opening the packaging, removing the socket from the kit, and then getting under my car. It took less than 5 seconds to loosen the bolt. I also like that the extraction socket works in both directions. This meant I could reuse the rounded bolt, as the socket would grab it to tighten it. I did not need to torque down on the bolt, so I don’t know if the socket could apply a lot of force tightening the rounded bolt, but I was at least able to tighten it enough for my needs.

The husky dual direction bolt/nut extractor are a very handy tool to have in your tool box. We have all ran into a bolt head or nut that is mangled or stripped out. That where this sockets come in, they have a bit design that grabs the item where ever it can and makes it some what easier to take out. The work excellent just remember to use some penetrating oil so you don’t snap the bolt off since you’re putting a lot of torque on them.

I received my Husky Metric dual-direction 7- piece extraction set today; this is a complete set with sizes from 8 mm to 14 mm, the set comes with a 3/8- inch and 1/4-inch drivers.You can use power tools (impact gun) or hand tools which come in handy on the larger fasteners.Simple directions are included on the back of the package. I like this style of extractors because they are durable and less prone to slip, especially when you find a size extractor you can tap on with a hammer. Overall these are very handy to have on hand not only when working on cars or trucks but also when a lag screw breaks when working with wood projects.

This is a nice set of sockets for removing tough nuts and bolts. They can also be used to drive those same bolts back in place again too. They are made from Chrome Molybdenum steel.You get 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 13mm, and 14mm sockets in the set. It seems peculiar to skip the 9mm and 11mm sizes.The sockets all have square drives and two 1/4” hexagonal drives are provided to drive them using regular power tools, including impact drivers. The 8mm socket takes a 1/4” square drive and the other four take a 3/8” square drive. Each socket is clearly marked with its size.The sockets have a gray plastic holder that hold them neatly in place when not in use. (The SAE version has a black holder, so it is easy to differentiate between the two sets.) The sockets can also be rotated when on their holder so that their sizes are visible. The two drivers are however, loose.Made in ChinaLifetime Warranty
