stuck stem bolt

gary4130:
got a rounded off stem bolt ,does anybody have any advice for getting it out?




think somebody has tried to get it out before as its been drilled a few mm in -see third pick

BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN:
It's under pressure at the mo and will be a bugger to move  ::)

One way I know is to cut the bolt in the middle and then you might be able to shift each half better when the pressure is off  ;)

wait to see what others say first  ;)

gary4130:
cheers mate bendy  :daumenhoch:
did think of cutting the bolt ,but unsure of getting the rest out  :-\

GavinDavis:
You would have to be careful but you could always try and drill the head of the bolt off the shoulder of the thread?

Or maybe put a crappy allen key into the head and carefully try and get a couple of tack welds on it.....then use a small spanner/adjustable etc?

BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN:
yer not always easy - that why I said to wait to see if any one else has a better Idea  :crazy2:

but the bolt at the mo is under pressure, so unless a good grip it will not turn  :tickedoff:
