Re: Bolt Head Rounded off - How do I get it out?

I have a device like mmikey's. Mine is made by Erwin and the set has six sockets of various sizes. I've used it to remove a locking wheel nut (lost the key) and also a strip head oil drain pan. It looks exactly like the femal version of an "easy out". You simply position the socket over the bolt and tap it once or twice with a hammer. Then use your socket wrench to remove it. Since it is counter threaded it will only work to remove and not to screw in a bolt or nut.
