VAMPLIERS 6.25" Stripped Screw Extractor Combination Pliers

I had some short sheetmetal screws that were rusted stuck and was unable to remove with a screwdriver and liquid wrench, however this Vamplier was able to grip good enough to be able to slowly remove without stripping out the screws. Excellent product!

After over 55 years of using Vise Grips, lineman pliers, dikes, drills, and various extraction tools, I treated myself to one of these, after seeing someone use it (read:hawk it), on a YouTube video. I actually made something of this type years ago by drilling the tip on a pair of slip joint pliers. It didn’t work out, if I recall. Some pliers do have a tip that is formed like the Vampliers, but I never found a pair that did the job. Maybe the design is different, or they weren’t hardened properly. I figured I’d give these a chance.The day after they arrived, I had to do some maintenance on my ~30 year old Craftsman 16 gallon shop vac. Needless to say, several of the 8-32 steel screws were rusted, so I used my lineman’s pliers (which were nearby), to extract the screws that cammed out, forgetting that I had the Vampliers sitting upstairs. The last screw was in a tight place where the lineman pliers wouldn’t fit, and the Phillip head was gone. At that point my two remaining brain cells connected and recalled the Vampliers VT-006-2. It grasped the screw head very easily, I turned the associated nut, and it was loose, no drama. If I didn’t have this, I could have ground the screw head off with my carbide burr, but this was way easier. The very end (and the side, also), is made especially to grasp fasteners that are deformed, and it works very well in that regard, with surprisingly little force needed on the handle. I haven’t used the cutter yet, but it seems nicely made. I think back on all the times I could have used this over the years.Someone gave it two stars because they couldn’t remove the nut retaining their lawnmower blade with it! Come on, every tool has its limits. People knock it because the serrated jaws don’t mesh completely and they can’t grasp thin material. I, too, have a gap on mine, but I can still grasp one sheet of copy paper if I squeeze hard enough. If you are buying this to adjust thin material (like shim stock), you’re buying the wrong tool.$35+ is a lot for a small pliers, but it can pay for itself very quickly in time and aggravation saved, especially if you are a professional. I recommend them, and may be buying them for my sons-in-law for Christmas, unless they pi** me off too much before now and then!

These pliers saved me when I had completely given up hope on a stripped screw. I had already tried the rubber band trick with no luck, but the Vampliers gripped it on the first try. The build quality is excellent — the grip is comfortable and secure, and they’re incredibly easy to use. This is now a permanent fixture in my toolbox. If you work with screws at all, don’t wait until you’re frustrated to buy these!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Excellent screw extractor. Was able to remove security screws for window locks which were almost flush with the surface. It definitely took effort but I was able to do it. Would recommend over and over and over again.Bonus points for looking awesome in my toolbox.

These pliers worked really well for removing stripped screws that a normal screwdriver couldn’t grab anymore. The jaws grip the screw head firmly and make it much easier to back stubborn screws out without a lot of frustration.The build quality feels excellent and they have a solid, precise feel in the hand. You can tell they’re well made.Overall, a very handy tool to keep around if you work on projects where stripped or rusted screws occasionally show up.

Never had a tool that required an invite into my home before. And for some reason these refused to work for a while after we accidentally spilled some rice.But aside from that these pliers work great! Had a couple of stripped 4 inch round top screws stuck in some wood and these pliers had no issues getting them out. The pliers feel solid and the grips are comfortable to hold.

Save yourself the frustration and absolutely get these if you have a stripped screw or one that won't move at all. After stripping one of my back license plate screws, I tried a screw extractor kit and all it did was round out the hole more, making it so that no screwdriver could even get any traction on the screw. The grip on them is amazing.

These pliers work great!

赤いネジザウルスなかなかいいです♪少しお高いですが、同色の赤いマスクも付いてプレミア感があって、とても満足しています。機能的にはPZ-58の緑のネジザウルスと一緒ではありますが、エンジニアさんの遊び心を色でも感じられる工具フェチにはたまらない一品です。数量限定ですので、そんな満足感を味わいたい方にはお勧めです。売り切れる前にクリック♪

Most people buy it for extracting damaged screws bolts and nuts. The wire cutters are an added bonus. They even cut clothesline wire which has a plastic wrapped multi strand wires. Excellent for tight places where its hard to grasp a screw to remove. The Vamplier will replace my vise grips a tool I use to remove broken licence plate holder screws on cars I bring to the car auction. Its worth the price for quality.See my review on You Tube search for " Vampliers Tool Review ".

Echt ein Lebensretter bei festgerosteten Schrauben die weich wurden. Nicht immer kann man was anschweißen, neue Bits einschlagen oder aufbohren. Hat mir schon ein paar mal SEHR geholfen.Klare Kaufempfehlung

Why haven't I bought a pair of these before rather than wrecking other tools and the screw/bolt I'm trying to remove?My life is now complete!

Werkt goed en goede kwaliteit.Formaat van deze tang is goed voor kleine schroeven.
