Will this work with the drill in reverse? Got a pesky snapped bolt to extract with a left-hand bit that I cant get to with my right angle air drill.

It works both directions. The only difference between this and right angle drill is this thing is hard to hold in hand if you need more power to push it down. For me it works OK, I need it like 3 times a year to drill small holes or screw in some cabinet hardware.

Yes it works in ether direction. I work in hvac and use it daily to remove and reinstall screws in hard to reach places. Don't know what I ever did without it!

Yes it works just fine in reverse. I was driving and removing screws with this in my impact driver. Good luck!

Yep. The internal gears work in either direction. The gears are metal (not plastic) so they can take the torque. The handle can be placed in several lockable positions, which ever one give you the best grip. However, I don't think it is going to last very long if it is constantly hit with an impact drill.

This right angle attachment will work both ways; forward and reverse, there is no listed directional limitation for this tool.I was successfully using it in reverse way as well.

I've taken out long 3 1/2 drywall screws with mine. I suspect it may be built like this inside:http://i01.i.aliimg.com/img/pb/191/520/519/519520191_385.JPGJust be sure to never use an impact drill driver with this -- use only standard drills.

I'm not sure about that. The core bit would have to screw on to the tool's arbor. Plus the RPM might be too high for the bit.

Yes. The drill does have a reverse mode. The battery lasts a really long time and it is much more compact in size than others I considered

The drill is chuckless. Simply hold the end and allow the drill to tighten. Put it in reverse to remove bits. Best cordless drill I ever had. I has tremendous torque.

Yes this kit will work in the drill. There's an adapter in the kit that allows any standard drill without the built in quick change type of chuck to convert it to work like one. It's a great little kit.

size of the bolt matters, pre soak with wd-40 to break down rust , try loosening first with wrench if screw under 1/4 inch these will work just fine, pre-drill and use remover head on electric drill, air drill is too strong and will strip out.

Jessica, you need to "unscrew" the drill bit holder; As you do so, you will note the opening increases in size; when your drill bit will go into the drill, stop turning; then reverse the holder until it is tight around the bit. Hope this is of some help.

I have a regular Ryobi drill and it works great(not impact). It uses a 1/4" hex bit

I don't know why their customer service told Buck that info. In his review, he described the correct way to reverse it so that it does work for reverse-threaded applications. Reversing the head is the proper way to adjust the wrench to torque left-handed threads. The torque mechanism only works in one direction - clockwise is the default direction. Some wrenches have a push-through drive to get bi-directional torquing, but this one has a reversible head (some wrenches can't be reversed at all). It's not a big deal to reverse it. Doing so essentially "turns the wrench around" so that it will torque in a counter-clockwise direction. A "reversible ratchet head" feature is not the same as a "reversible ratchet" feature, and their product features clearly state it has a reversible head. Simply reversing the ratchet mechanism with the toggle only allows you to ratchet in both directions - it does not provide for torquing in the reverse direction.

Yes it'll go in reverse and pull screws. It is a great tool, small but strong and very manageable. Even my little sister enjoyed using when working on her home's renovation.

This may work better with the drill 995/driver 886 than it did for me. I would make sure I read everything completely. Let me know how it works.

Not very safely. The device is unbalanced and thus it would be incredibly difficult to hold the drill steady enough to have this drill effectively. A drill press would be the only safe way to use this bit.

NO, it does not. You can put it in reverse and it will ratchet properly in 'reverse', but it will not sense torque and click for left-handed (reverse) threads without taking the unit apart and reversing the head. See my review.

This is a very special bit, it is not part of the bit selection which comes with the drill. You can find it at http://www.mscdirect.com/product/details/71206916 (as an example, other places online would probably have them)

Yes but it may twist up due to it's length. It might work well if the drill is used very slowly.

After reading all the questions:: Thought to add:I just used this bit in my DeWalt 18v standard drill (NOT a hammer drill or a "driver") CORDLESS.It fit right in that "quick chuck" that comes on these common battery tools.Note: This would NOT fit in any 3/8" chuck tool...or, 1/4" for that matter.

Good grief. That sucks. I suppose it depends on which bit broke. I assume it's the reverse thread end. Maybe it snapped deep enough that another try will grip enough to pull the whole thing out. Most auto part stores will loan them. If not I'm afraid it's a head pull.
