🔍 Key Concepts

• Broken fastener removal sequence – think about what you must do BEFORE you can grab or turn the broken bolt/stud • Centering and control – why is it important to work from the exact center of the broken piece? • Use of extractors – what preparation is normally needed before a screw/bolt extractor can be used safely?

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: if the bolt is broken off flush, can any tool actually grip it yet, or do you need to create something first? • Which option gives you the most controlled, reversible ‘starting point’ without immediately risking damage to the surrounding threads or part? • In normal shop practice, what is usually done just BEFORE using a tapered screw extractor on a broken bolt?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure you pick the step that could logically be done first even if all other steps might also be used later. • Check which action depends on something else being done beforehand (those are usually not first steps). • Avoid an option that could overheat or damage surrounding material or threads as an initial move unless all gentler methods are impossible.
