How best to remove exhaust studs ?

<< < (2/2)

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Thanks for the links  Matt - I have a set of stud extractors but they do not go down to M6 - the type with three offset roller balls.

My preferred route would be heat & an extractor that I could use whilst the stud is still hot.

K2-K6:
I've got the same TYPE as Matt's second link there.

It's very old and not same make but very effective if you've clearance around the stud for access.  It grabs right down at the face of casting to get as close as possible to inserted section of studs.

Pretty effective if it fits.

I had a set of three that were RR tools from the 1950s that worked great but as a teenager I abused them until they broke - the 3/8 one would have been perfect. They were like a small T handle design.
