For screw extraction, choose a left-hand drill bit like the CHICAGO-LATROBE #53 (0.0595 inch) to match the screw's minor diameter. Use a 118° point for general materials. Ensure the bit is high-speed steel for durability. Always center-punch the screw head and drill at low RPM with cutting oil to avoid breakage.
