Can I use this set on all types of metal?
While the set works on most common metals, extremely hard or damaged taps may be difficult to remove. Success depends on the specific circumstances.
How do I choose the correct extractor size?
Match the extractor size to the nominal size of the broken tap. The extractors are usually marked with the tap size they are designed for.
What should I do if the extractor breaks?
If the extractor breaks, stop immediately. Try using a different extractor from the set, or consult a professional for assistance.

Troubleshooting
Extractor slips and doesn't grip the broken tap.
Ensure the correct size extractor is used and is fully inserted. You might need to gently tap the extractor into the flutes with a small hammer or use a pick to clear any debris. Apply penetrating oil to loosen the tap.
Extractor breaks during the extraction process.
Reduce the force applied. Use penetrating oil to help loosen the tap. Check the extractor for any signs of damage before use. Try using a larger extractor if possible, being careful not to damage the threads.
The tap is very tight and won't budge.
Apply penetrating oil and let it sit for some time to soak into the threads. Apply heat around the tap with a heat gun to expand the surrounding metal and loosen the tap.
