ABodyBetty's new baby comes home!!!

E Z outs are a very HARD steel. You will need a good hardened bit to drill it out.

Next time just drill out the soft steel bolt and don't risk breaking the easy out. Remember HeliCoils are your friend easy outs are not. Just be glad you didn't break the EZ out off in Aluminum, Then the bit just walks off and drills out the Aluminum. You will want to try and center punch the EZ out to get the bit started straight. Good luck I hate small EZ outs.

Great thread as well.
