How to Remove a Broken Tap with Walton Tap Extractors
Since 1908, performance professionals have depended on our tap extractors as their first, best option for quickly getting out broken taps. Whether from an engine block, manifold, or an important part (aluminum, steel — you name it), in three simple steps you may be able to remove a broken tap without drilling, lasers, damaged threads, scrapped parts, or repair inserts.

Step 1
Thoroughly remove all chips of the broken tap. Insert the Extractor fingers into the flutes of the broken tap, pushing them gently, but firmly, into position.

Step 2
Push the holder down until it touches the broken tap. Slide the sleeve down until it touches the work.

Step 3
Apply a tap wrench to the square end of the holder. Twist forward and backward a few times to loosen, then back out the broken tap.
