[How do I?] Remove Stripped Screw

[EmilioG]

Hi,
I have a small 3/16"size Phillips head screw in a recess that got stripped.
How can I get it out?
Has anyone here done this?
I see a lot of extractors but do they work and what are the best brands?

Thanks

What material is the screw? What material is the screw stuck in? A pic or two would be nice.

This video explains the procedure.

It's in a hardened steel albrecht chuck collar.
Can I slice the screw with a dremel cut off wheel?
The screw is black, material is unknown. Someone stuck a phillips head screw in the collar, it's supposed to be a slotted cheeshead machine screw. More than likely the collar is trashed. A new one costs only $30 luckily.
I can put it on a mill and drill right through it? Carbide bit?

start drilling from the other end, chances are it may spin itself out as you drill

I'm just going to put it on the Bridgeport and drill right through with a cobalt drill.
Thank you.

squeeze the ring in the vise

Yes, I'm putting it in Starrett v blocks, both sides and wrapping the chuck in brass shim.
I should use a carbide drill but worried about it snapping off compounding the problem.
Would carbide be a good idea or just go with cobalt?

 

[TOOLMASTER]

cobalt should be fine
