Stuck/Spinning Bolt Screw
Home Improvement Asked by G. Higgins on January 26, 2021
Some time ago I had a handyman install a pull-up bar with some "M10 x 75" bolt screws that came included with the pull-up bar.
When I try to take the bolt screw off to remove the pull-up bar, the bolt screw just spins. If I try tightening it, it also just spins.
I have tried using vise-grip pliers to pull the bolt screw away from the wall while I turn the bolt screw counterclockwise, but I have made no progress here. Any advice would be welcome.
One Answer
I have had success using a jemmy bar (or crow bar) to "load" the bolt while turning it with a spanner or socket, this gives much more pull than just pulling with pliers.
