well welcome back to Steve Robb reviews today we're gonna review this guy's I've had this
since 2015 and I've owned various versions of what this does this is the Titan one six zero two three
three H Drive show you right there three H Drive stud extractor now this is good for 1/4 to 1/2
inch studs and if we could just take a look raid in the end there you may not get a good enough
shot but yeah it's serrated here so when you turn this one way it tightens it up and it's tightening
up going counterclockwise clockwise opens it up so I got a little bit of a demonstration here and I'd
like to show you how really everybody who's a do-it-yourselfer should have one of these
I actually like this type the best but there are different models of different variations that you
can use and they all have their purpose - this is not the end-all for everything but overall I like
this style the best and this thing here I've used quite a bit and it's to me I think it's the way
to go so let's go on the bench here I'll show you a little bit of demonstration of why this is not
just a stud extractor well let's get started right here here's your regular stud I've got
a whole assortment that I keep an inventory and the whole idea behind this is when you're want
to back out a stud the more you go towards the left counter clockwise the more these serrations
in the end here will bite into it and they are just rock-solid they perform flawlessly or you
can snap it on your 3/8 ratchet you can put it on your 3/8 air ratchet and put it on this butterfly
impact and put on your half-inch drive if you want you just got to put an adapter for the 3/8 or you
could stick it on your your impact driver which is fine and this not so much what I found was
depending on the type of drill you have the torque level is not very good enough for this and there's
another reason why I'm mentioning this is when you're using these in the forward direction the
chucks really bite but if you tried to use this in Reverse a lot of times I'm finding these style
of chucks open up on you and that's why I don't like that so there we go right there left-handed
drill bit now what do I use this for many times what I'm doing is I'm putting in a left-handed
drill bit let me just type this up here for you here and this is I believe about 5/16 bit that
you have to drill a left-handed drill bit well I'm telling you what this here is terrific because the
more you're turning like I said left the more it bites in and on the left-hand drill bit many times
you want to extract a broken stud you know or you want to drill into something using a left-handed
bit and that's the way to go is using one of these now it's of course you could use your drill some
drill trucks accept it but of course you've got a great big honking drill too and a lot of them are
bigger than that where you could just snap this into your air ratchet and that is just terrific
or like you say you could put it onto this there's all kinds of variations now you've are obviously
you can't use this right now to extract a stud many times people use this method and I've used
that before just putting on two nuts get a wrench and back it out that's not always so simple to do
in some situations and sometimes this method you don't have the access to it or you know you don't
have room to stick on to nuts in the first place and the other method would be to weld on a nut and
sometimes you know what the way the vehicles are built today and some machinery you start
welding in there and you've got wires exposed it's gonna be not so easy so I think that is
a good alternative I really like this for using on the left-handed drill bits and of course for
extracting studs well thanks for joining me here today I think this is just fantastic for removing
studs and for left-handed drill bits use guys let me know in the comments if you've ever used
this for a left-handed drill bit before maybe you didn't know about it well you do now so thanks for
joining me here today subscribe if you haven't and come back again let's have some more fun Cheers
you
