[QUOTE="MacFromOK, post: 3191336, member: 40864"] I always used heat as a last resort. It does work, but it also softens the metal (reduces the temper). And you can actually use a cutting torch and cut nuts off bolts without damaging the threads (if you use yer torch a lot). ;) Of course it's a moot point if you're replacing the fastener anyway. :drunk2: [/QUOTE]
