What Measures Can Be Taken If The Car Anti-Theft Screws Cannot Be Removed?

In the previous article, we have introduced what are anti-theft screws, including the characteristics of anti-theft screws, functions, applicable types, application range, and How To Remove Anti-Theft Screws. Car anti-theft screws are very useful, once if not removed, how should be done?

Driving method: In the process of using the car, you will encounter that the anti-theft screws cannot be removed, or the anti-theft screws sleeve is lost, leading to the situation that it cannot be removed. In this case, Xinchi Fastener Company knows that one way to take is to weld a conventional nut on the top of the anti-theft screw and drive the anti-theft screw with a conventional sleeve, so as to achieve the purpose of disassembly.

Lubrication: If the screw is too tight to be removed, use WD40 spray to lubricate it first, then gently tap it with a small hammer before attempting to remove the screw. Take care to cover it with a cloth to avoid damaging the wheel hub.

Hard removal: If the screw is too tight or the nut has slipped, you can try to use a smaller sleeve to remove it with an air cannon. Most of the screw tightening problem is because the torque of the wind cannon is too large, so it should also be paid attention to when installing.

Electric welding: The method of using electric welding is to weld a metal rod with a long handle to a screw, and then twist the metal rod with a wrench to turn the screw. Note that this method is easy to damage the hub, so it is necessary to take protective measures.

Ion cutting: This method uses an ion-cutting machine (which only reacts to iron) to melt the screw slowly at high temperatures. Note that this method is only suitable for anti-theft screws on aluminum rings, but it will also produce the phenomenon of paint loss.

“Make your own key”: Apply oil to the pattern of anti-theft screws, and then print out the pattern with paper. The projection method scans the pattern onto the computer, and then CAD drawings to make processing drawings. Select the material for CNC machining, finally forming. It’s not very accurate, but it’s enough. This kind of method is only applicable to some types of anti-theft screws, of course, you can also play freely.
