Q
how to remove screw with bad head with epoxy
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Removing a screw with a damaged head can be challenging, but using epoxy can offer a solution by creating a new grip. Firstly, clean the screw head and surrounding area to ensure the epoxy adheres well. Mix a small amount of strong-hold epoxy and apply it to the screw head. Before it sets, press a screwdriver or a hex key into the epoxy, creating a bond to the new makeshift head. Allow the epoxy to cure according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually for a few hours or overnight. Once the epoxy is fully cured, attempt to turn the screwdriver or hex key; the cured epoxy should provide enough grip to enable the removal of the screw. It's crucial to apply enough force steadily and slowly to avoid breaking the bond. If this method doesn't work, consider drilling the screw out as a last resort, taking care not to damage the surrounding material.
