Stud and Screw Removers
Posted: Sun Dec 17, 2006 8:26 pm
Likely my fault - too keen to counter the vibration effect - overtorqueing and threadlock - but I rounded a coupla heads of the pannier holders when I wanted to get them off.
These worked a treat. Just drill a small hole, tap 'em in and carefully turn.
£8.70 & vat from Lawson-HIS.co.uk although there's other places do 'em.
Next step is to have a go at a header stud that I destroyed. These look similar to kit mentioned in other threads and are available in this country from the same people as above. If they're any good, I'll advise. Likewise if they're crap and I end up helicoiling.
