Good quality 9 piece metric screw, bolt and stud extractor kit. No one wants to shear off bolts etc, but in the real world they do fail from time to time, for a number of reasons and if you can get them out yourself it's a major bonus.
Extracting screws and bolts, even with the best equipment, isn't child's play and requires a good degree of accuracy drilling the pilot holes. Using cheap 'easy outs' are a very bad idea indeed and the name is an oxymoron! They will invariably snap off and then you're really in the do do, with a visit to an engineer with a spark erosion machine where you will have a reassuringly high bill.
If you're going to extract sheared off threaded fasteners, ensure that you are very careful, particularly with the small sizes. Whilst these are excellent industrial quality, no tool is indestructible if you apply too much torque. Ensure that you drill the remains of the fastener dead centre with a good quality drill bit. It doesn't hurt to pilot drill the holes and open them up a tiny bit at a time. If it is a steel bolt in aluminium alloy heat the area up as much as is safe and use a penetrating oil such as ACF50.

Let customers speak for us
Good quality product, and value for money.
One of the best pieces of kit I have got and what a price.
Bought this ratchet after seeing the review in CCM , in my haste I purchased just the ratchet rather than the kit, anyway it’s got a quality feel and I’m sure it will be a useful addition , yet to use in anger
This tool is great for tightly gripping round bar without slipping.
Fast despatch and quality product vfm
Brilliant little set used it on my motor bike and at work
ANOTHER OF YOUR TOOL DEALS THAT APPEALS TO MY ENJOYMENT OF HAVING THE TOOL FOR THE JOB. GREAT QUALITY AND WILL GET GREAT SATISFACTION FROM USING IT.
Great little set, personally I think it will be a great addition to any tool collection.
Does as advertised. Colleagues all want one now!
I had the previous incarnation of the Rotolok ratchet the head and handle of which swivelled but didn't lock into place. That was good - but this is better. A really useful set, especially for those tight spaces. Feels substantial and well made too
