- It does indeed work everytime, a very great tool. BUT. When the easy out breaks, you are REALLY done for. I broke an easy out trying to remove a bleed nipple from a rather valuable caliper, and that

- Easy-outs are made from very hard and brittle steel. Even a little sideways pressure on the smaller ones and they'll snap. You can (if you're lucky) grind out a broken easy-out with tungsten-carbide

- I had excatly that happen to me. Broke a bleeder nipple. Figured I would use the easy out to remove it. The easy out broke off. So I started to drill it out. After drilling it for awhile (those easy
