I can see using this tool, great idea. One of the problems with a broken bolt that is at or below the surface is to properly center the drill. Usually the bolt is broken at an angle, resulting in the drill tip wandering to the side or being slightly off center. When you drill, the bit digs into the side, damaging the female threads for future use. A guide like this is a fine idea, obviously make by somebody with experience.
If the tool itself won't fit then it obviously could not be used. However, if the tool fits but your drill is too large I have had success using longer drill bits (aircraft length rather than the jobber length that comes with the kit) when I need extra reach, or a 90 degree drill. If the extra length will solve your issue there are also drill bit extensions available on the market ranging from a few inches to a few feet in length.
@drokano The quikcetner is designed for use on bolts, it might work for some applications with screws though. The tool also works with a particular thread pitch. Th 6mm bolt comes in a few different thread pitches. The 6mm-1.0 (course thread) is the most popular and the 6mm-0.80 (fine thread) is also used. We sell metric course thread and fine thread kits that contain th respective 6mm tools.
I would have to see the application your looking at to give better advise, but if the surface isn't flat you would not be able to use the centering body, but maybe the tool could attached to the bolt in one of the other 4 ways.
@shammon1 The tool is available through our website (serach for QuikCenter youtube will not allow me to post it here). We ship worldwide using USPS priority mail flat rate.
I could do with one of these now as I have half a bolt stuck in a top mount on my suspension. I'm in the UK so that rules me out right? I have to be back at work on Monday and frankly, (if you'll excuse the pun) I'm 'screwed'.
@Delta10666 Thtool is available through our website. Unfortunatly youtube will not allow me to put it here in a reply but if you search for quikcenter it should come up.
@coboltmoo The tool is available throughour website. We ship worldwideusing United States Postal Service. The shipping rates posted on thesite areusually a worst case destination and are adjusted by us prior to billing to reflect the actual costs.
@quikcenter Not available in US stores, not available in UK stores but its available in sets of 4, single units for metric and imperial? WHERE is it available then?
If you are serious about being a distributor please email me. I don't want to post my email here but you can use the you tube service or get my email off our website. Thanks.
Thanks for the support. We had tried left handed drills at one point and found that sometimes the drill would grab the bolt and try to twist it out with the tool in place resulting in a broken drill bit. I do agree that left handed drills work great for bolt extraction, but I recomend using them after the guide hole is created with the QuikCenter. Thanks again.
My left ear enjoyed this video.

This system works perfectly on any BENCH !
Unfortunately most broken bolts are on the engine, totally inaccessible and prevents you getting the component off and onto the feckin BENCH !!
