Vampliers(2-Pack) 5" Mini Screw Remover Pliers with ESD Safe Grip. Slender Non-Slip High Carbon Steel Jaws. Made in Japan. Ideal for IT, iPhone, Mac/PC, Circuit Boards or Any Electronic Repairs

I ordered this product because I had stripped the head of a screw in a pocketknife that I needed to replace. I tried every tool and life hack I could to try and get it out. So, I found these pliers and it got the screw right out! It works really well to get the small round headed screw out. Also good for getting those annoying small screws out. Would recommend!

Why did tech designers have to decide on a tiny little screw to hold in place this newest form factor of hard drive? And why did the designer of my laptop choose such a soft, strippable metal and then decide to tighten the thing too hard? I'll never know. But what I do know is that the screw for the M.2 drive in my gaming laptop wasn't coming out. No matter how carefully I tried with the screw driver, it just got worse. But these pliers saved the day. I was able to dig in to the (overly soft) metal of the screw and get just enough grip around the sides to budge it loose so it could unscrew.

These are well worth the extra couple dollars. Great quality and ergonomics.

Greatest tool ever!

I have 5 of their pliers, they are all excellent...they have removed tight, old, stripped, or rusty screws/bolts when everything else failed. Highly recommend!!!

This pliers worked great to remove a stripped screw.

If you have a stripped screw, this is a perfect last resort. My gaming laptop has multiple stripped screws from the previous owner and I had to take it apart to put new thermal paste on it and I was screwed because 2 of the screws were stripped and luckily this tool saved me, I even tried the super glue method, the rubber band method, the edge method, multiple size screw drivers, I could not drill it out because it was a tiny screw on the fragile motherboard surrounded by components and chips. I had valuable work information on my Laptop and this saved my entire carrier. I'm a game developer and I wasn't able to test my game because of overheating issues

TLDR: M.2 screw stripped? Vampliers will suck (and turn) the screw out! No dremel nor super glue needed! BLEH!I was very skeptical at first of this item as I always think most pliers don't work with stripped screws correctly... let alone tiny Desktop/Laptop screws! But these...! These worked the first time right out of the packaging! I had stripped my M.2 screw out of my Lenovo Legion Y740 17 inch laptop a few weeks ago trying to remove the thing... and totally didn't know how to get it freed without damaging anything in the chassis... I heard of using a dremel, but to scared to do something that could also damage any part inside the laptop, I also was going to try the Super Glue method... but again scared of damaging my parts.When I heard about these Vampliers (A cool and clever product name!) from a forum about removing a stripped M.2 ssd card from a laptop and looked at the reviews... my jaw first dropped at how expensive these tiny pliers are but... THEY ARE WORTH EVERY CENT! As you can tell in these photos... you can see the stripped screw in my hand and how small, flat & thin the screw and its head is by the penny, but it grappled the thin head with no issues... and a few turns later... popped the screw out and I was able to replace the screw easily! No fuss, no muss, it got the job done so easy!So outside of the high price I have no issues with these pliers, if anything changes as I use them overtime I will update this review. (Currently its Dec. 06, 2022) But I will completely 100% recommend these to your PC & small electrical tool box! Any PC repair person should keep a pair of these on hand in case of stripped screws inside Desktops and Laptops!

ALSO I GET TO SAY "OH, time for the Vampliers!!!" and annoy anyone around, which is a huge bonus in my book. I bought these 90% foe the function, but the name is just... *chef's kiss*They got the stuck screw out, and i'll have 'em for the rest of my life to remove other stuck screws. Perfect!!

Worked on a stripped M2 screw. Worth the price of admission.

Worked in my Acer Predator Helios 300.While a little on the expensive side to be sure, no other method was working for removing a stripped screw - and I was very afraid of drilling holes so close to important parts. So this was my last resort (well, technically second to last resort, as I could have tried epoxy but that would have almost certainly gotten very messy with the extremely limited room I had around the screw).The screw was in a pretty difficult position, so it took a while to get a decent grip, but in ten minutes it was free.Very happy about it.

I was doing a repair on an employee's laptop and I was seriously at my limit. I tried all the things like glue, elastic band, etc. and nothing was working.I bought these along with some dremel parts (I was going to try and cut a line in the screw and use a flathead but who knows if that would have worked. As you can see in the picture the screw is VERY small).Anyway I was super doubtful that these would actually work on such a small screw but to my surprise, they quickly got such a tight grip. It was super easy, no force or anything needed. If you are scared that the screw that's giving you difficulty will be too small for these pliers, don't be. Barely over a millimetre of the top of the screw was exposed and it was seriously no problem.The quality of the pliers feels very good. Definitely not off-brandish.So go ahead, stop worrying about that stripped screw and buy these instead.

Easily removed laptop heatsink stripped head screw. Definitely works with smartphone screws too.
