I got a set, tried to use them twice and they failed both times. In the first try the bolt metal was too hard for the extrator to bite in in any reasonable time drilling and the second time the screw was too soft and the extractor stripped the hole the extractor makes attempting to extract.
am i the only person with a set of screw extractor bits?

I never even knew it was a thing. I’m assuming most people don’t have them.
I see sales for them all the time at hardware stores.
Forklift Mechanic, here. It indeed is, a thing.
