A rounded bolt is a bolt that has lost its sharp corners and has become smooth and round. This can make it difficult to grip with a wrench or socket, making it challenging to remove. Rounded bolts are a common problem, especially on older vehicles or equipment. There are a few different ways to remove a rounded bolt, depending on the severity of the rounding.
One way to remove a rounded bolt is to use a bolt extractor. Bolt extractors are specially designed tools that grip the rounded bolt and allow it to be turned out. Bolt extractors come in a variety of sizes, so it is important to choose the correct size for the bolt being removed.
