    This may have been stated before and it is so good that I'll risk the repeat.

    I have a lot of tools but nothing I have would loosen the oil filter bolt on my XJ700N and I didn't want to grind it and take the chance of ruining the filter housing.

    A friend let me use his #8 Craftsman stripped hex-head tool (not what Sears calls it) for a few minutes and I was able to break that stuborn oil filter bolt with stripped corners (thanks to P.O. )

    It broke loose so easly!!!!!! I cant say it enough.

    The more pressure I put on the tool the harder it grabbed hold!!


    We ALL need this in our tool boxes!

    +1 that these are great tools - I've got a full set of the Sears damaged screw removers and the damaged bolt removers - fantastic. Much better than easy-outs.
