Lawdamercy. I’m pretty confident in my mechanical ability. I’m normally the guy that answers mechanical questions. This eze out has kicked my butt.

It’s broken off flush, in the end of an axle spindle, where a drive in grease fitting is supposed to be.

There’s nothing there to weld a nut to. I have used some souped up drill bits and have yet to cut a shaving off the eze out. Yesterday I got a drill bit from one of our MRO’s that he said would drill it with no problems. Again, not one shaving cut. The only other option for drill bits that I have is one made from pure Carbide. I can get one, but I have to imagine that it will snap being used in a hand drill.

I heated the eze out, and subsequently a portion of the end of the spindle with a torch until it was cherry red then tried to drill it. Still no luck.

Anyone got any idea how to get this son of a buck out?

This crap is important. It’s on my boat trailer
