Stripped Lock ons

[imapodaddy]

Dangit! I stripped the allen bolt on one of the collars on my grip. I can't remove it. I heard of a tool called "easy out." Anyone have success with it or atleast removing a lock on collar?

Did you strip out the head of the bolt, or the actual threads?

Stripped

Just the head.

An easy out is for getting broken off bolts out. You drill a hole in the middle of the bolt and insert the easy out to hopefully twist it out. You can try and drill the head off the bolt off so you can get the collar off. You are probably going to damage the collar one way or the other though, so you may be looking at buying new ones. Hopefully you don't have carbon bars [-o<

EZ Out

I don't think they make EZ outs that small. FXRob is right. Drill the head off.

New collars are pretty cheap and you know you wanted the anodized ones anyway.
