ENGINEER M2 Screw Extractor Pliers - Remove Stripped, Broken, Rusted Small Screws For Diameter 0.08-0.1 inches (2-3.5 mm), ESD Safe Made in Japan PZ-57

I had to remove two badly gouged out little M2 pan screws from carburetors. I first tried the blue screwgrab stuff with a new JIS screwdriver, to no avail - quite disappointed. Next, I tried these. Immediately, and without argument, with some good downward pressure being applied, each screw rotated. No contest! The jaws bit well into the screw heads and were perfectly sized for the screw and the very limited space available. My only other options were to have to cut the head to accept a slotted screwdriver or drill the center to use a screw extractor; both quite risky procedures on such a small screw. Couldn't be more pleased! Well worth the money and a great investment.

This is a small-sized pliers useful for getting that stripped scree out. It is small and with the end grip I can grab and turn a screw head once the drive slots are no longer functional. Very handy.

Excellent product! I had some under 2mm hex head screws that were impossible to remove. This worked perfectly, in less than a minute the three screws were out. Then I noticed why they were hard to remove in the first place - the mfg. used a drop of Locktite on each of the screws. I am so glad I purchased these!!!

Honestly an absolutely amazing product. Had a stripped, slippery, tiny m2 screw that was stuck in a Nest doorbell bracket. Tried all kinds of pliers and they all slipped except for this brilliant Engineer M2.

I had some brackets on my wall with screws that were painted over. Some were really stuck and I ended up stripping them. I tried several methods of getting them out that were unsuccessful. These pliers actually helped cut through the paint and got the screws out very easily. I only wish it had a way to hold it in place or a spring to make it easier to keep turning the screw.

I initially bought the PZ-59 for a "just in case" since I've often used pliers with much struggle, and busting out the Dremel to make a slit is annoying. I don't like "drill bit screw extractors". PZ-59 success, which led to more purchases without hesitation: I needed to replace a poorly-installed door striker plate, and one screw was horribly stripped by the installer. I reversed it out just enough until it fully stripped. I struggled to get a good grip with vice grips. I cut a slit (my go-to!) with a dremel for a flathead...so much torque was necessary (on a #8 or #9 screw) that the screw head split, which was a new one for me. At least now I just cut it off with the dremel and got the striker plate off. So I cut the screw down flush with the door jamb and just put the new plate over it. I always wanted to remove it though. Months later, I got the PZ-59, removed the striker plate, and gave it a shot for fun. The screw was cut nearly flush, yet I still got a very slight grip on it with the PZ-59, and I remember applying much less effort because it grabbed on much more surface area than vice grips. I backed it out with ease, so excitedly, that I called my sister over to try and experience it! PZ-57 success: This is absolutely awesome. A couple of tiny screws (M2x3 size with a head thickness defintely less than 1mm) on a used laptop motherboard were stuck and I couldn't get them out. The PZ-59 was too large, and I didn't have much hope, but I bought PZ-57 anyway despite it being "too small" of a set for the diameter of the screw head, and I bought the PZ-58 as another "just in case" if it was too small. The PZ-57 easily gripped and got the screws turning ridiculously easy compared to all the forceful pressure I applied with the screw driver, and I was NOT wanting to cut a slit with my dremel. I don't need the PZ-58 at the moment, but I'm keeping it because the PZ-59 and PZ-57 are so ridiculously excellent. I'm sure I'll have a use and next time I won't need to order and wait for it. Buy it and try it. These are the right tool for the job!

I have quite a few Engineer Precision pliers in the Neji-saurus line. These are awesome quality little screw pliers. They operate very smoothly with no slop in the joint. Engineer uses a very high quality steel and the pliers are finished extremely well. Everything lines up perfectly. I like how robust the handles feel for something as small as they are. I bought these for working on my r.c. vehicles, but will not hesitate to use them for anything else that requires something in this size range, like electronics, etc. I really like working with tools that are enjoyable to use. I find myself keeping an eye out for damaged screw heads just to have an excuse to get these little things out.

When it comes to lineman's, combination, long nose, you know what actually any plier that's not a channel lock or a pliers wrench (knipex is the only brand for those two types) the Japanese really make the best in the world. The tooling is solid and the fit and finish is perfect. I love the detailed grips and they do make a difference so it's not all for show. I have a few pair of vampliers and a few of the engineer neijisaurus and even though I'm not positive it wouldn't surprise me if they were made in the same factory. They're almost identical, down to the packaging. I went with a full set of the engineers for the minis only because they were on sale and the vampliers weren't. Don't let their moto fool ya either, these function as more than just screw removal. Some scenarios would be impossible for me to complete without the ability to securely hold a nut in place and the indention they have in their jaws ensure a tight grip that won't slip. These small pliers are a great addition to any electronics tech or hobbiest working with PCBs and tiny hardware (screws, nuts, bolts) and the full sized pliers are strong enough to withstand a commercial shop setting and commercial construction sites. They appear fancy because of the handles but they're far from just a show piece.
