best to split twice, opposite sides and nut falls off
Fuck it more hammer
In a time where talking over background music has hit youtube like the plague, It's so nice to see a good straight forward video (even if it is an ad) with no bull. Good job my friend.
If I need nuts broken I just call my Ex-Wife.
She's a real Pro ! 😛
Hahahahaha
LOL!!
Better hope she's not reading this, she might hunt you down lol :P
My thoughts exactly, last I checked, my ex-wife still worked.

Hey man, never tried these always grab an angle grinder or air cut off tool when I get into trouble. But after seeing these they will come in handy when space is a problem.
Hey that's a pretty cool tool, definitely beats using a torch or grinder. Especially in those hard to reach areas.
use it twice. cut on both sides of the nut and it splits the nut in half and it falls off the stud. been using mine for many years.
Yes the threads are possibly damaged as a result but it is easy to run a die to renew the threads. There are many times that this tool could be of major help. The nuts in the video dont appear to be overly bad but he is just demonstrating the use of this tool. Pretty neat i've been working on cars for years i don't think i've ever seen this tool hahaha.
Great vid of tool and demonstration on how to use. Had no knowledge this tool existed, so thanks for putting me on to it. Info stored in my memory bank;)
The NUT is what gets split... NOT the bolt/stud!
Yes! The NUT NOT funny!
That's what she said!
Im sure it can do thr bolt as well though
Alexander Matias
Why would you want to split a bolt? They are usually screwed into a blind hole and all you can see of it is the bolt head. If you break the bolt head, then you can't get the bolt out without drilling it or welding a nut on what's left in order to remove it with a wrench.
Ralfie i said it could do it. I didnt say it was practical.
Great demonstration! I've a bolt on a front ball joint that's rounded, so will go down this route.
Professional mechanic here and Ive never ever needed that....a good gun, heat or penitraiting oil is all I use
Won't work so well when you're taking nuts off ball joints and it spins inside the control arm.
"Professional mechanic" who has never encountered a spinning bolt with a seized nut.. How peculiar.
acalora123 apply pressure with a gear jack from below and it wont spin..?
A nutcracker is cheaper, faster and less mess....everything a pro should want
acalora123 you use a ball joint separator with something like wd40. Tap the thread or bolt with a hammer a few times to crack the rust and let the fluid in. Then with the ball joint spliter/spreader/separator in place or just a pri-bar the pressure stops the track Rod end or ball joint from spinning and off it comes.
Nice to see these things work tho
Loved the way you opened the package. No bullshit method
Excellent demonstration.
I have had mine for over 35 years now. In those day only expensive ones were available and I got a Hazet nut splitter. I tried an hydraulic model but it was not as effective.
How can you not know the difference between a bolt and a nut?
Robert Bradley the same guy that tries opening the package like a caveman
well a bolt dus not have a hole to run it through
Dyslexic? He still managed to get the job done.
Robert Bradley a bolt is the stud side. A nut is what threads on to the bolt
The bolt is the male part, nut is female (easy to remember that)....if you can’t figure it out from there ask a doctor.
I’ve never stabbed a package open like that…good idea 😎
Haha. I laughed so hard when I saw him do that 🤣
If you're not worried about saving the nut, just use a rotary tool like a dremel with a cutting wheel. MUCH easier.
Very handy tool! Used many times on track rod ends!
Back then we don't have this luxury in my country, we usually used a hacksaw and adjustable spanner, it was hard work because the nuts were quite big
you need an Allen wrench to hold the bolt in place while you remove the nut...
Most the times those strip out. Have had it happen many tine
Yes! I used one earlier on today. Done the job easy!
Thanks for showing I’m doing this I have a stuck ball joint nut planning to replace a new ball joint. Can it split a castle nut?
i have been a mechanic for 20 years and nut splitters where around before me!
Nice video mate. I have a pair of those but I have't tried them yet. Now I'll know that they are working. Thanks.
Pretty cool, I see the blue loctite on the nuts and rust, so the bolt breaker works well.
You were pretty fortunate that this worked. Usually the back side of the splitter snaps in half. The nut stays firmly in place and the tool is ruined. I have used these about a dozen times and have never had one that did not break. Perhaps the hardware used on my Jeep's suspension is all Grade 8 (or metric 10.9) and is too hard for these cheap tools. Grade 5 (metric 8.8, which is probably what was used on the two nuts in this video).
Holton 345
yep. mostly a waste of money, maybe the higher end ones may yield better results but I doubt it. Even the tiny screw on the side of the nut splitter can easily break off on the middle of the torque process or while you're at near end of torquing down in a real tight area, the splitter will just keep sliding off to the weakest side and prolong the misery.
they are a useful tool but in very limited applications. Best to hang on to your vise grips and keep your angle grinders handy.
Some moron why would you use it a dozen times if it was always bad stop working on cars you obviously have no clue what you're doing
Another British mate taken over the world
There's several ways to get that nut off but that's pretty handy when you have the room to use it
I knew this was going to be good, when I saw him open the package!!!!
Thanks for putting this up. I'd been wondering about those.
Great stuff. I've got a rounded off sump plug I just cannot get off. Welding a nut on top the only option left. Except I don't have a welder. This looks like a cheap solution.
You doing very very good job !!! I cant wait more videos...
Who hits the threaded part on a tierod ? Hit where it goes through the knuckle and it'll pop right off...if it doesn't put your purse down and hit it harder. And their nuts not bolts lol I feel bad for any car you work on and the poor sap that ends up with it after you
Fox he's an. Asshat just making videos
If the outer tie rod end is bad it really does not matter. If it wasn’t bad before it is now so it still does not matter.
Folks if your tie rod end is not bad, use a bit of penetrating oil and a wire brush to clean those threads. If you watch closely there is a allen wrench spot on the end of the stud. Get the nut broke loose then the impact he had should remove the nut. A tie rod separator will pop it out.
Coy Patton lmfaooo 9/10 that allen head strips out. And in the video he said "if your trying to save it, just use a bit of wood on the top" no need for that and it honestly is a bigger pain in the ass because the wood absorbs a lot of the impact, and can't get the full ass behind it. When you hit what it goes through all of that impact goes to the part. This is pretty basic knowledge in terms of mechanical work.
Pretty tough talk for someone who doesn't know the spelling difference between "they're" and "their". The man said "if you're trying to save this, use a bit of wood on the front of it". He didn't use the wood, so clearly he doesn't plan to reuse the tie rod end. It doesn't matter if he used proper procedure to remove the refuse part. The video was about demonstrating if a nut breaker would work and he showed that it did. And what's this whole thing about him having a purse? Are you so insecure about your manhood that you need to go point out how unmanly you think everyone else is in an attempt to make yourself feel better?
cjoe42 wasn't insulting anyone's manhood, but if the shoe fits wear it. And that's pretty big talk for someone who had the whole point of this go 10miles over their head. You seriously trying to do this right now? Lmfaooo
Looking through the comments, I see a lot of people talking about how he hit the tie rod end and it messed up the threads. Clearly you didn't see the boots on them and plus he was replacing the tie rods anyways. Why else take them off unless you're removing the knuckle in which I'm sure he'd use a different method.
Angle grinders work too, if you are taking your time and want to save the stud/bolt
Id like to see you try do that with a steel nut. Handy tool for mild steel nuts tho, like those ones.
Do these nut breakers work good when you don't want to damage the bolt/thread? Sometimes the bolt/thread is irreplaceable, like some shock absorber mounts...
Finally a useful video on UA-cam ! Good job pal
heh where did you get the plastic grating for your gravel do you find it good and what does it look like from a distance?
Google permeable driveways; many types out there. They're claimed to be very effective when properly installed.
the best way mate is to use the splitter on two opposite sides of the nut. it will simply fall into two pieces. no need to go launching a hammer at it.
The nut breaker is to be used to compress the fastener in a manner to loosen it not ruin it also its meant to use manually not air tool rated.
Man I didn't know Ali G had a youtube channel.
boo ya schocka
Wished I'd seen your video a week ago. Would of saved me a lot of hassle!
hairynews trying to open a package?
Wooooooooooo... Hussshhoosshhhh!! woooooshhhh...... Oooohhhh yeahhhhhhhhh.!! 🤔 Hmmm...im seeing a very......potential first choice, compact, solid, pocket sized, convenient, effective interrogation tool. Water boarding literally really drowns you. I dont like that. This is good!! Superb!! Prisoner friendly tool. 👏👏 Nobody dies from broken nuts.
Hope you have a grinder cause the point on the breaker is totalled!
I used a smaller version of this tool- about 20 years ago, to remove the 3 (6) strut nuts on my Nissan. After 2 the body of the tool broke, and I just ended up using ViseGrip to hold it as a regular chisel, and whacked it with a sledgehammer. Worked fine then. Yup- I whacked off my nuts.
Holy crap this tool is cool gotta get it.
Bet that drain is full of stone....
lukevibertuk wouldnt matter it would still drain. Its a permeable driveway its actually made to have great drainage.
And pieces of car, spanners, old engine oil..
Also that size drain has about a 10 litre trough.
love your method of opening the package! hahahah
Dude, it's a NUT. You're a nut!😂
Tommy T .., this guy is just another stupid youtube video uploader who doesnt know a screwdriver from a bus driver😂
Nice video thanks man
What song was used in the intro
One trick that most don't observe is to only use a six point not a twelve point socket, much more surface area.
death wheel or die grinder, those things are a pain in the ass. for tie rod ends, put vice grips in between the knuckle, as hard as you can get em, use channel locks to close them if necessary. rip with the gun and done
Hmmm interesting. You know I have never seen these before and must say I could have used them a few times
great tool/ video demo where can ya get them?
Bmac love the video bought a set love it . so wat kinda drain is that?
I would advise against working near drains... There is a correlation between lost bolts and working near drains. Scientists are stilling looking into this issue and looking for a solution.
Great video.
Thank you brother 👍
These splinters have been on the go for younks...
torches work good, heat it till its blood red and it will come off in 1 shot even with the joint able to just free spin... fire can solve all problems
Lol people saying “ I’ll use this if space is a problem” while using a giant impact🤓 90 angle grinder for the win😏
*DEEZ NUT SPLITTERS*
nice gloves lol dnt want to get your tea toten fingures dirty
He used it once, and the edge of the chisel is already dented
Great Video , can you put an amazon link in the description ? Thank you very much
i have a good set of torch but thanks for the review.
He worked on my last roles, it now goes up the road , sidways.
they are NUT splitters; you're not supposed to damage the bolt
you just mushroomed the thread on that tie rod
He said use wood or something to protect the threads if it's going to be re-used. His was a waste unit for demo.
when you break the nut, the Screw thread is damaged?
No thread is good
Thanks👍
Uwe Sanz If you drive the splitter too deep AFTER the nut splits, you can damage your threads, but generally the nut splits a bit before the thhreads get damaged. You should notice the tension on the splitter suddenly easing off at the moment the nut breaks apart. That's when you STOP turning the pressure screw!
But you can screw up the thread by knocking it loose with your hammer like you did.
After you broke the nut once you need to do it again 180 degree turned and it will fall right off.
Great question! Just about to ask this myself
Aright I want one beats spraying the darn nut multiple times with WD-40
Yes defintely. Use the link in the description to get one.
worth every penny!
So you are saying that it should work on the suspension arm bolts as it did here
It works on all nuts
Thats a "must have" tool in Michigan.
You're supposed to hold the tool square , then the split is shorter - taking less effort and breaking cleanly. The way he opened the packet says it all - who works over an open drain ?
Mrnumbnut right must have a magnet on a long rod lol
Haw about these nuts
You picked pea gravel for your auto work surface area?
Does it make a difference of what grade the nut is?
I use it when I want to save parts.
When i don't want to save parts I cut them off with angle grinder and replace them.
I have used these nut splitters and the tool broke trying to split a shock nut.
The balljoint doesn't spin if you use an Allen key , some even have a hexhead.
Will this compromise the thread on stud/bolt?
Big ups mate
Silverline stuff is usually not the best so a better make might hold up better.
What kind of drive way is that , I have a gravel driveway that is on an incline and it seems like that would be the perfect setup for mine could you make a video about it or just shoot me a comment
off topic what materials needed for your floor
those are NUTS!
Ya know usually people bury the plastic driveway framework with the gravel....
video should say .. How to remove seized nuts , and destroy parts in the process.
Used one once and the chisel part of the tool broke... nut stayed intact. Never tried using one since.
Instructions too complex now I'm on child support....
marc not funny
New torture method!
What kind of floor is that? Kindof a grid of squares with gravel in between. Never seen before to be dead honest.
You're spinning the ball joint. Just use a pickle fork to pull down on the joint and then loosen the nut.
I’m going to buy one
A big pair of grips forces the cone into the hole & allows you to impact them off - piece of piss.
aqfter the first split, rotate the nut 180 degrees and do it again. The nut will fall off, no hammerikng needed.
impact gun not impact socket 😂😂😂
You use impact sockets on impact guns.
well yeah thats obvious
What's the point of your first post?
Norm dePlume well would you call a ratchet a socket no ffs obviously dont know your tools
He says to use a 19 mm impact socket on the splitter. Why would you call that an impact gun?
What volt is you impact wrench?
Will this damage the threads? My axle nut is stripped ;=(
