How to MIG Weld : Removing a Broken Stud for MIG Welding
If you have to remove a broken stud for your MIG welding project, our expert is here to teach you with tips and techniques in this free welding video clip.
my dad showed me this a year or so back, with a antique tractor transmission. it was a smoth shaft we were extracting, and i dont think a screw extractor would have ever done it. each idea has its own aplication.

Love the videos, But please work on volume equalizing… Almost blowing up speakers trying to watch these videos. I have to crank it when he talks then BOOM THERE GOES THE WELDING.

one of you is half wrong, the other is all wrong.
The heat DOES cause expansion, which COULD inhibit freeing the stuck piece, but more importantly that expansion breaks the corrosion bonds which allows you to work the piece out.
Plus whether thermal expansion will hinder or help depends on the different materials because they might have different coefficients of expansion that you can take advantage of.

there are better techniques this one is not too good

It did work well but i would like to see this done when it is on its side not looking at it vertical and when you have to hold the nut on square and weld it also remembering most cylinder heads are aluminium so you would not want to heat and distort it. Good idea but i would personally use an extractor screw or drill and tap it out

it worked ! but heat expands metal, so wouldnt help release it.

Lovely idea but I would prefer to use a screw extractor.

it actually would help because the middle piece of the bolt would get hot and become soft forming to the threads better making it looser
