Brutalize Your Nuts, But Only If You Must

Old hardware can be frustrating. No, strike that, it can be infuriating. I’ve sat down countless times to do a half hour repair only to have it drag past the two-hour mark thanks to a single stripped, rusty, worn, miserable nut holding the old part on. It can be a nightmare. There are lots of fixes available, but so many of them are simply brutal. And some of the remedies can be very time consuming on their own. Trying to grind new angles into a rounded nut can take more than a minute or two. Among the solutions is a product by Craftsman that we tested recently. It’s called “Lug Out” and is designed to get those nuts off using a fierce steely bite. If you’re wondering whether it worked for us, check out the full review and maybe you’ll discover a real time saver!
