I wish I was out there I could have told him that didn't seem right for such a small bolt. I think he learned a valuable lesson though . The f bomb is quite appropriate though .

The same thing happened to me. On the exact same bolt, except I was taking mine off when it broke. We had to weld a nut to it probably ten times before we got it to finally back out.

I tried that but just can't get the weld to stick to the bolt, it hits the nut to fast.( there's only one thread sticking out to get the nut on.) Maybe I'll try it again with the wire feed up the whole way .:thumbup:

It seems almost impossible to do but if it makes you feel any better my bolt broke off flush. The guy that was doing it quite a few tries but finally got it to weld up one good time

I don't know the proper name but you could also use a reverse drill bit to back it off

Well we gave up the weld . Our problem is that I snapped a good square easy out in there and trying to get it out has been quite the challeng . I'm quite tired of drilling.

Thanks ,it was. I don't think he will make that mistakes again. Doing that on boilers is a hell of a lot easier.
