Where’s part 2 of the video showing how to remove a snapped-off stud extractor?…
One of the first engineers I ever remember, tought me how not to snap those extractors.Many try to put the same kind of torque in that a bolt would take which it won't.
amongst the rest of the procedure is to use lots of little impacts. These days, I just use a low torque impact driver which doesn't have enough torque to break the extractor but will eventually vibrate the most stubborn of fixing loose. I think my record was about 45 mins of just sitting there with the driver bashing away.
There's better and quicker ways of doing it of course.

I'm not sure what my neighbours would have said to 45 minutes of impact wrench though?
