EZ Grip Friction Drops©, Aircraft Grade, 3 fl. oz. EZ59183

This is exactly what I've used for 35 years of helicopter maintenance. Ideal for those stubborn panel screws. Dip the screwdriver straight into the bottle. Works like a champ. The Army buys this same brand and issues it from the POL shed whenever you need it. Excellent product!

I was dubious about whether the EZ Grip Friction Drops would be worth buying because of the cost, and because the claims seemed too good to be true. I used it to help get a purchase on some stripped screw head drives so that the very stubborn shower drain screws could be removed with the help of a manual impact extractor. The drops worked very well and saved me from the trouble of drilling the screw heads and using a screw extractor. The drops were definitely worth the cost.

I wish I could give this more than 5 stars. Like everyone else, I have had issues with rusted or stripped screws. Heard about this on a car repair forum and bought it based on the Amazon reviews. Today I was doing some repairs around the house and needed to remove several incredibly rusted screws. I had to use a small screwdriver to remove a layer of rust to even GET to the screws. The screws themselves where so corroded that I was only able to dig out a tiny slot to put my screwdriver in. On first attempt I barely put any force in to it before the head of the screwdriver slipped out. It barely had a millimeter of depth, if that. Some of the screws had so much corrosion the head of the screwdriver wouldn't even catch. So I put a half a drop of this stuff on the screw and tried again. I put a lot of force in to it (the screws were rusted in, after all). The screwdriver took all the force I gave it and didn't budge out of the screwhead at all. Every screw came out immediately. I was amazed. I can't even count all the screws I've stripped in the past. Every one I've needed to drill out, or awkwardly twist with lockjaw pliers. The pain, the tears, the endless profanities and promises to god. This bottle seems like it will last me for YEARS (literally HALF a drop was more than I needed), but I will never allow myself to be without this.

Wish I had known about this years ago. Awesome product!

I really didn't expect this product to work, but for the tiny, recessed hex screw under the handle of my sink faucet, I thought it was worth a gamble. I just put a tiny drop at the end of my hex key and - voila - it worked immediately! The hex key easily unsrewed the tiny screw with no slippage at all. This allowed me to finally fix my dripping bathroom faucet. I have added this to my toolbox and I am sure it will come in handy in the future - amazing product!

This product is great to have in those cases where stubborn screws just won't budge.

My robotic lawnmower uses a type of spinning razor blade to mow with. I made the mistake of screwing them on with my drill. The next time I went to change the blades, one of the screws was stuck. First I tried WD40, then Liquid Wrench, both are excellent products but the screw was stuck , not rusted. I couldn’t get enough torc before the screwdriver slipped. After some research, I learned about EZ Grip. There were several other similar, cheaper products, but the reviews led me to choose the more expensive EZ Grip because I didn’t want to pay for a product that might not work and then still need to get this one. At first I tried the Phillips head screwdriver. No luck. This screw head also had a slot so I tried a flat blade screwdriver and it worked on the first attempt. I’m still so shocked that it worked, saving me the hassle of taking it to a repair shop. Good luck with your own stuck screws. I will have EZ Grip in my own toolbox from now on.
